I happened on your journal through a link from one of my friends list, shortly after three seperate friends recommended your books to me in reply to one post. If you're interested, it's here (complete with all three recommendations). The first friend to suggest your books was a librarian, a very well-read individual, so I take her recommendations very seriously.
Anyway, later, another friend posted a link to your journal, and having just read the first 7 books of the Dresden files, naturally I wanted to take a look.
I was really thrilled that you'd offer to share some of your expertise with your fans. It really said what a great guy you are, so I friended you, both because I was interested in what you had to say, and because I'd like to be a better writer, and tips from anyone better than me are very much appreciated.
I did have my little fan-girl thrill moment when you responded to a comment of mine too. :D I felt like I had my five seconds of fame! I suppose you get sick of fans gushing, so I'm not going to pester you with comments.
But I did want to explain your journal's appeal to me, and to say thank you for the generosity you show in explaining your craft. This is time you could be spending making money for yourself, instead you're sharing your insights with us. So, thank you.
