“Write to please just one person. If you open a window and make love to the world, so to speak, your story will get pneumonia.” - Kurt Vonnegut

Perfect quote and inspiration!! I can say the one I am writing to please at the moment would be my baby girl, Ali. I told her about a plot point that I have a poll going on in my journal for. Yeah, she got mad at me when I told her and yelled at me. She is emotionally invested now, even though she hasn't read it since the first week.
