Well hey everyone!
So I wanted to first off say thank you to those of you who have been following my work over the past two weeks since I've signed back on and began publishing work again. The support, while it may not compare to other author's in numbers, has been unexpected and, in turn, overwhelming. It has really helped me on a personal level and I cannot express my appreciation.
Today I woke up to a crazy amount of votes, comments, etc and to seeing both of my works in the top #500, with my collection of poems sitting at #183 (the highest it's been so far), and I do not believe I've smiled the way I did in quite a while. My smile comes not from votes or rankings, but knowing my writing is actually being read and enjoyed; that's what means the most to me. So, again, thank you.
I hope to continue publishing work you will enjoy reading and connect with on a frequent basis. I also hope to keep connecting with you all and reading your work as well. I love meeting more and more of you because it not only allows my writing to be read, but I end up reading what you've written and, before I know it, I've lost half an hour and I'm 18 pages/poems into a work of yours.
I hope you keep reading, sharing, and, most importantly, enjoying for I will be doing the same with your writing!
All the very best,
Ryder
