Goodreads asked Keri Wyatt Kent:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Keri Wyatt Kent My readers. When you write something, and it helps someone, or connects with them on a soul level--that's an amazing gift. I'm always delighted when someone tells me one of my books helped them in some way. I also love the flexibility. This morning, I sat on my back deck with a cup of coffee and wrote. The flip side is, you have to be self-motivated. You have to meet deadlines. It's hard work, you're always looking for the next project, but I'm really grateful I get to work from home and choose my projects. Also, I love the craft of writing--making something beautiful out of words. In a world that values bucketloads of content, I care about quality. I love the process of honing and self-editing what I write to make it as strong and clear as I can.
