What do your fans mean to you?
Everything. One of my fans is 93 years old, and I keep her in mind every day when I sit down to write. She's counting on me to get the next book out in a timely fashion, and I can't let her down!
What do you read for pleasure?
I was tempted to write "fan mail", which would be true, but probably not the answer you seek. I read romance, of course, mostly historicals. I'm a life long SF and fantasy fan, so I read a great deal of that as well, along with history (mostly US and Florida), suspense, biography and some non-fiction on current politics and economics.
