Livre d'Or

I put resource links at the end of most literature I post. The vast majority of my readers adore this feature. Some of them urgently need it due to growing up without advantages that other people enjoyed. But there's always a few who feel compelled to complain, because to them it's redundant. I suspect the ratio is somewhere around 19:1.

The thing is, I'm not writing for the 1 who finds it boring. I'm writing for the 19 who find it interesting or essential, and are willing to skip any links that they don't particularly need.

It doesn't matter if some people find your work boring, as long as you're reaching other people effectively. At least that's my perspective as a writer and a reader.
