Goodreads asked Beth Mattson:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Beth Mattson I love a lot of things about being a writer. I have given myself permission to be a writer and call myself A Writer. It feels good to admit a passion and skill by embracing my own style and realness. It's amazing to have a job that is all at once creative, indulgent, and off-the-wall AND pedantic, recursive, and analytical. I love that by being a writing I can also be a teacher, advocate, and activist. I love that the more of us who write, the bigger our conversations grows and the more and more and more we all have to read! I love to hear about others' writings just because I have labored to put some out there. What do YOU like about writing???
