In On Writing, Stephen King recommends writing your book with a specific people in mind, his Constant Reader. Not to market the book, but to write it for the people you hope will understand and enjoy it..

I wrote this book for me, my wife, and my friend Steve. I also wrote it for you, all the people on tumblr I find fascinating and enlightening. All the people who I would love to meet with, and drink coffee, and talk.

This is for you. I really think you’ll enjoy it. Thank you for the inspiration.

Please reblog if you plan on reading My Babylon.
