Well, there are more writers of blogs right now than there are readers, so that's clearly a vanity phenomenon.
John Doerr

What I try to do for my readers is to pass on some of the things that I found out about being thirteen after doing it for forty years.
Diane Duane

What I wanted to do was to get that sense of being in touch with this lost world while holding onto what draws readers and audiences there in the first place.
Stephen Greenblatt

What is overriding that and most important is that readers generally are interested in a good character. They might be more comfortable with Harry because they think they know him, but they always seem willing to give somebody new a chance.
Michael Connelly

When the BBC decided to bring Doctor Who back as a feature film a few years ago, one national newspaper ran a poll to ask its readers who should be the new Doctor, and I topped it.

Mary Wortley Montagu

Writers write to influence their readers, their preachers, their auditors, but always, at bottom, to be more themselves.
Aldous Huxley

Writing a book for me, I expect, is very similar to the experience of reading the book for my readers.
R. A. Salvatore

Writing can sometimes be exploitative. I like to take a few steps of remove in order to respect the privacy of the subject. If readers make the link, they have engaged with the poem.
