Goodreads asked Diego Uribe:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Diego Uribe Being a writer has many cool things. One of them is making up stories, creating new worlds and characters that don't actually exist. Being able to do that, to make up something that wasn't there before and to feel it as real as any other thing is a great power. Another great thing about being a writer is the impact that you have, that you get. You can make people believe things, see things, imagine things, feel things, you can make them travel, you can touch them, make them cry, make them laugh, make them feel angry, anything you want is possible. And just with words! The right words, obviously... That is a great power as well.
