To the Writer:

To the writer:

You spend long hours

alone

with your words.

The odds of you

ever making a living

doing what you love

are longer than

your next novel.

But you need to know

that you have touched me

with your words.

And that even if

you never make

the NYT best seller list

you have made a difference.

Your words 

and your characters

are a part of me now;

a part of others too.

So, if you ever get discouraged

please remember this

and

Just.

Keep.

Writing.
