Goodreads asked Dani Shapiro:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Dani Shapiro It's a privilege to attempt to shape the chaos of life into something with a shape -- to try to make sense of this world, whether writing fiction or memoir. And to connect with others through the written word. I wrote in my book Still Writing that writing saved my life -- it is my disease AND my cure. I truly believe this.
