   That’s funny because you link to something that claims to be able to get readers to do something that it couldn’t get you to do. Or me for that matter.

   Also, despite my likelihood of reading the entirety of posts on this blog because of their brevity, the (sometimes required) lengthy post titles do not always get read as my blog reader cuts off the end.

   Getting a reader to read every word is like expecting a listener to appreciate every note, or a food connoisseur to taste every spice.

   Humble writers realize it’s not about them and their words. It’s about the message. Abraham has done a great job of that.

   Not only do I read every word, but sometimes I’m inclined to COUNT every word on your blog. 22 words is enough.

   This goes for comments, too, people. Brevity rules!

   Speaking of Shakespeare, it was he that penned the words of Polonius, “Brevity is the soul of whit…I will be brief. Your noble son is mad.”
