This Author’s Surprise At Hearing Someone(s) Unexpected Say They Read Your Writing Without Any Prompting <3
Today one of mine said
Hey - Mx. Cap?
Did you know we listened to that book you wrote?
And I didn't know what to say back,
So I asked, "Today you did?"
This morning there were three of us
no four
The story about that girl - Mily?
Right when she got stuck with all the uh
Prickles? and thorns.
All I could think was
'More than one of you did? Wow.'
So I asked, "And what'd y'all think?"
It's cool man
It's different
Feels like you're kinda in it
Oh I don't really know but I mean
I wanna see what happens next
Truly the fact that they went out of their way
Took time today to hear me read the first chapter
Well it's more than I ever would'of asked
And it just so happens their feedback
Is the stuff that lasts ~
