1, to tell him you have read one of his books;
2, to tell him you have read all of his books;
3, to ask him to let you read the manuscript of his forthcoming book.
No. 1 admits you to his respect; No. 2 admits you to his admiration; No. 3 carries you clear into his heart."
- Mark Twain
Truly, it is gift when someone is willing to wade through early drafts of a novel... Thank you to all my wonderful beta readers! Where would I be without you?!
What a nice thing, Irene. I loved doing it, felt like I was told a special secret. Mark Twain said so many wise things, didn't he?
