Yeah, it's great to feel like you're connecting with others through your work, and to know that it's stirred up any kind of reaction. Moments like that are when I am the most satisfied, because that's when I feel the strongest sense of purpose, like this whole word habit of mine isn't for naught.
Just recently a girl who works with Mike mentioned to him that she read the short story I published in my school's annual literary anthology and really loved it. What really touched me about this was the fact that the volume my story appeared in came out several years ago, and she still remembered it despite not having read it since it came out.
