Goodreads asked Thomas Benz:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Thomas Benz I suppose for me it feels like I'm able to experience certain things in a richer way by paying attention to the details of a situation, the nuances of people and their interaction with one another. Also, there can be a real sense of joy in making things up and having stories come together in a meaningful way. By translating experience--both real and imagined--into words, one's life sometimes becomes more coherent.
