Say Thank You

A book promoter
almost always
promotes my new book releases
for free.

When I thanked him
recently,
I mentioned how I felt so fortunate
to have supporters like him.

He told me,
“X, you’re one of the only writers
who thank me.
Of course, I’m going to support you.”

Two little words,
emails that take 30 seconds
to craft,
have earned me priceless
promotion
over the years.

Thank yous
and heartfelt appreciation
have landed me
jobs,
promotions,
party invitations,
friendships,
support
and
countless other gifts.

Take the time
to say thank you.
Your reasons
to be grateful
will multiply.
