Encouragement for Writers
 

From SFCanada Mailing List


The December Readers Digest quotes a recent survey for the Department of
Canadian Heritage, March 2005.


87 % of Canadians reported reading a book last year.

53% of Canadian males and 41% of females read some Science-fiction,fantasy,horror last year.

The highest category was Mystery,suspense,detective,adventure with 66% women

and 57% men, followed in second place by "How-to-Books."

Apparently, one out of eight Canadians reads more than 50 books a year!

That's a lot of working writers.
