Every writer would have a different answer to this of course. But for myself, the best thing about writing is that anything is possible!
Writing can make the reader laugh, cry, think, feel, question, realize, wonder.
A good book can take them to worlds far away that are so different than our own.
Or they can look at everyday life in reality from a different angle and show just how magical the real world can be.
These are all things I love about being a writer. Giving form to thought.
But, beyond all of this, the best thing of all about being a writer, is hearing someone say; "I really enjoyed your stories and I think I have one of my own to tell."
