Goodreads asked Amanda Ripley:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Amanda Ripley By far the best thing is that I get to read and learn all the time. It is my job to read the newspaper, to interview people and ask them questions about their lives and obsessions, to pore through obscure research findings. I love that.
