Also, an author has been PM'ing me daily for the last few days. Today was about following stories and authors, how many follow you or the story, and the number of views. I told him that doesn't matter much to me. It used to, but looking at my own behaviour and choices, I cannot fault others for theirs, so I stopped being so concerned about the numbers. If a poem gets 100 views, that is good enough for me. Today, I told him all of this and that life is too short to worry about it.. and then i found this about life being too short in my inbox:
Life is too short to worry, try not to.
