#readership

It's part of a writer's profession, as it's part of a spy's profession, to prey on the community to which he's attached, to take away information - often in secret - and to translate that into intelligence for his masters, whether it's his readership or his spy masters. And I think that both professions are perhaps rather lonely. ↗

If it were not for the fact that editors have become so timorous in these politically correct times, I would probably have a greater readership than I have. ↗

The fact people think that when you sell a lot of books you are not a serious writer is a great insult to the readership. I get a little angry when people try to say such a thing. ↗

Newspaper readership is declining like crazy. In fact, there's a good chance that nobody is reading my column. ↗

Readership was high, and very attentive. It was people's only source of knowledge about the world. ↗

Sometimes I know the meaning of a word but am tired of it and feel the need for an unfamiliar, especially precise or poetic term, perhaps one with a nuance that flatters my readership's exquisite sensitivity. ↗
