Monthly Reader Survey
Each month, I ask my readers a question or two. Sometimes, my questions are random fun things that have nothing to do with books. Other queries are about reading and writing. Join in the fun and answer this month's survey. The results (and a new survey) will be shared later in the month.
Privacy Note - I value my subscribers and do all I can to protect your privacy. These answers will be used exclusively by me and will not be shared with anyone except in aggregate (no personal identifying information) in next month's newsletter.
Previous Reader Surveys
Books Read in 2025
I typically read 100 novels a year and was curious how many books read in 2025 you accomplished. Bonus – titles of your favorites this year.
A Perfect Evening
With shorter days and longer nights, I asked how you spend a perfect evening during the winter months. Reading, yes, but so many great answers.
Best Vampire Book / Series
With Halloween approaching, I had to know about your favorite vampire book or series. Love all your comments and thoughts.
Back to School Supplies
With the new school year starting here in Asheville, I asked what were your favorite new items for the back to school season.
Favorite Ice Cream Flavor
Silly me. I should never underestimate your creativity again. Your favorite flavors were none of the three basic choices I offered.
Cool Snack on a Hot Day
As we continue to sweat through our summer temperatures, readers chimed in about their favorite cool snack on a hot day.
Creepy Crawlies
A sting of a wasp and a tickle from a tick stirred my question about your least favorite creepy crawlies. The results will make your skin crawl.
Great Potato Salad Debate
Perfect weather in Asheville calls for outdoor dining. When asked which kind of potato salad reigns supreme, readers delivered spirited opinions.
Dust Jackets on Hardcover Books
Hardcover books can come with a dust jacket or the information printed direct on the cloth cover. Which do you prefer?
April Fools’ Pranks
With April Fools’ day rapidly approaching, you shared your opinion of the annual day of jokes along with some of your favorite pranks.
Too Hot or Too Cold
Despite a frigid January here in Asheville, I remained firm in my conviction that being too hot is worse than being cold. Do readers agree?
Goals or Resolutions
As the calendar flips to a new year, I asked readers whether they set annual goals, make New Year’s resolutions, or something else.
