I love reader response, but I confess it never occurred to me it might be detrimental to take it into account when writing. But yeah, once I stop and think about it, I can see how easily things can get off track if you're not careful. Bet you didn't think you were writing an advice article, huh? lol! I appreciated this insight into your process.

I find I don't often enjoy humorous books, but you hit the tone just right for me. <br /><br />I identify strongly with Kit, enjoying his befuddled and frustrated snarkiness intensely. I've enjoyed the English series very much, but am enjoying this one even more -- just a personal thing. I do identify more with Kit's struggles than I ever did with Adrien's.<br /><br />Bravo!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2703296803955997449.post-46311236316339004822011-01-03T14:00:35.436-06:002011-01-03T14:00:35.436-06:00Love you, Josh!
