Goodreads asked Dawn C. Crouch:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Dawn C. Crouch The absolute best thing about being a writer is getting to write! When writing fiction, I love that all the characters in my novels have to do what I tell them to do as if I'm some kind of powerful wizard. Sometimes the characters argue with me, but in the end, they must do what I say! As you know, this is very unlike "real life" where hardly anyone does what you ask. Maybe sometimes and for that I'm grateful!

When writing nonfiction, aka, the Garage Ballet series, I get to write the stories that I've told to my students in my classes for many years and it's so rewarding to see the "old tried and true" stories down in print. A lot of fun! When do I tell stories in ballet class? While the students are catching their breath! I've had parents and students tell me that they love my ballet classes but really appreciate the ballet stories!
