Tag: #Wishes

Let’s skip the all too obvious ones—money and time, although I could use both—and dig a little deeper.

 

How about unlimited readers? Well, I guess they are out there if I could find them. Perhaps I should refine the wish. How about unlimited loyal readers? It would be nice to be a best-selling author.

 

Now I’m getting somewhere. Sure, that would lead to the money angle I ignored, but it would also provide me with the more important ego-boost of knowing my work is appreciated. The ego-boost that would encourage me to keep writing.

 

While it’s true that I write my stories partly for myself, I hope that other people enjoy them. But I won’t know that unless they tell me, and not many readers leave reviews. Perhaps if I had a more loyal followers I’d get more feedback? I can wish.

 

But as the old saying goes, “If wishes were horses, beggars would ride.’ I can wish and I can dream but I’m willing to work for what I want. I keep trying, but I certainly haven’t found the magic formula that draws in an unlimited supply of loyal readers!

As always, please stay safe until the next time.
