It's about producing something that brings life to the words.<br /><br />Hi Chatty - Thank you! My book is coming out in print this weekend on Amazon. :)<br /><br />Hi Karen - Yes, sometimes we don't recognize what will touch the reader. I've been surprised many times.<br /><br />Hi Melanie - Thank you. I'm so pleased with the way it turned out. Traci did a magnificent job.<br /><br />Hi Rhonda - It's a relief to get my cyber home in order. :) <br /><br />Yes, you can tell when a writer is not "bleeding on the paper." <br /><br />Blessings,<br />Susan :)<br /><br />Susan J.

The writers are few who can do just that, but add the polish and technical skills in an intelligent way. I'm thinking this is a rare combination. I can think of a few.<br /><br />Much improved blog look!

Some of the time, even though it seems that way to me, my critique partners say it's just fine, so I think some of it has to do with my state of mind. It's funny too, often when I think a blog post is only so-so, it's popular among my readers. Go figure. :)<br /><br />Blessings,<br />KarenKaren Langehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18177923284595298347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252285009517721143.post-35017472502332691822013-05-13T12:39:42.708-04:002013-05-13T12:39:42.708-04:00I think they have to relate to me and something I ...I think they have to relate to me and something I am interested in.<br />Hope you had a GREAT Mother's Day! sandie♥Chatty Cronehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02232040517217024681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252285009517721143.post-56327885347208786432013-05-13T12:35:31.092-04:002013-05-13T12:35:31.092-04:00Ooooooh, I love this new design--very pretty and e...Ooooooh, I love this new design--very pretty and eye-catching!<br /><br />So much of a writer-reader connection is subjective. I don't like certain topics, no matter how well the writing is done. <br />One example that comes to mind is The Shack. So many people raved about it that I finally read it. Not my cup of tea. <br /><br />Thanks for asking!Jeanette Levelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12898750484193832082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252285009517721143.post-75454125048201713532013-05-13T12:01:47.977-04:002013-05-13T12:01:47.977-04:00Hi Terri -
