Is it implicitly assumed that writers want others to read their writing? I'm not sure it is, sometimes; shouldn't it be enough that you've created something, without needing others to verify or substantiate your claim? Is your accomplishment lessened if no one else sees it? If you know no one will see your book, will you decide not to write it?
Or does the need for outside approval and a desire for fame go hand-in-hand with writing?
