On social media, many artists and writers fuss that the public doesn’t realize the hours and sweat that goes into a creation. I want to tell them to please hush. In doing so, they shift attention off the art itself and onto themselves.
A reader doesn’t care how hard the story was to write. The reader only wants a good story. They want to feel the story touches them, affects them, or entertains them. They aren’t reading the story for the author.
When we hire anyone, or purchase their services, we usually pay for the job. Think the landscaper or the surgeon.
Then there are those who charge by the hour. Suddenly you are more concerned with how long it’s taking them to work, and, in the end, you are counting pennies instead of waiting to be pleased with the unveiling of completion.
Some writers create a book in three months. Others in a year. Others longer. Do you really care as a reader? Does that make you in awe of those who write efficiently, or do you judge their work as shallow? Do you honor the one taking years or do you wonder if they just don’t care enough to try harder?
The public cares about the finished product, not how long it took to do it. Results often are all someone expects.

Readers do not care about the sweat and time writers invest in writing. And in the end their effort is not rewarded.
Jacqueline Kingston says
The writer should view it as a labor of love. That being said – having something read is the best gift an author can have!
