What’s the best thing about being a writer?

In fact, you seek those things out and feel momentum and relief when you gather impossibly specific crumbs of new knowledge. To relax, you do it some more. I won't read 20 pages of iTunes user agreement, but I'll exploration-read about the subjunctive mood till the cows come home. Being a writer means I can wallow in my obsessions but the bills get paid so I don't feel guilty. That, plus all that other regular writer-stuff about creativity, flow, meeting new characters, carving beauty and truth out of lies, etc.(less)

That book closed most of its loops, but I keep wondering what's happening to the characters. As I write the follow-up book, so far the characters are trying to kill each other.(less)
