Nothing beats having a neighbor stop you at the store and say, "I hadn't planned to put up any Christmas lights this year. Then I read your newspaper column and felt ashamed of myself for being such a Scrooge. I put up my lights." As authors, we have a real chance to impact people, for better or worse. I don't take that lightly.(less)
