Isn’t it great when authors leave comments on your blog?

I love comments, all comments.  Okay, maybe not the 50 at a day I get from lista de mail, but all comments from real people.  I don’t always respond in a timely fashion, but I LOVE to read them.  It makes me feel like I’m not typing into a black hole, you know?

Sometimes I even find a comment left on a review from the author.  In honor of Thrill Week I wanted to tell you about an author who has left a blog comment on 3 of the 4 books of hers that I’ve reviewed (and I’m sure the fourth was just an oversight ;)).  Karen E Olson, author of the Tattoo Shop series, is a blogger’s dream.  She never offered me a free book, but she offered me something better, feedback.  Isn’t that awesome?  I am psyched to meet her when I attend Bouchercon next month. (the 3 reviews-Ink Flamingos, Driven to Ink, Pretty in Ink)

So, tell me, what authors are good about leaving comments on your blog?  Let’s give them a shout out where it’s due.  And to start I should say that Beth Hoffman, author of Saving Cee Cee Honeycutt, stops by and comments often.  Love her 🙂
