"I would be a liar, a hypocrite, or a fool -- and I'm not any of those -- to say that I don't write for the reader. But for the reader who hears, who really will work at it, going behind what I seem to say. So, I write for myself and that reader who will pay the dues." Maya Angelou

"The idea is to write it so that people hear it and it slides through the brain and goes straight to the heart." Maya Angelou
Do you do this with your writing? Have you seen this in books? Share a good book that touched your heart, especially if it's one you wrote.
