Goodreads asked Daniel James:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Daniel James There are many things that can reward in different ways: watching your story develop as you whittle away at the edges, becoming a piece of work you're proud of; working your way through a dull shift at your "proper job" when a moment of inspiration hits you for a story or plot/character development; or a major joy is when after several days of thought racking despair you figure out how to unkink a knot in the story.
