Goodreads asked Monica L. Smith:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Monica L. Smith Words are the most powerful human invention. While objects can be in limited supply, ideas carried by words can spread far and wide. We all have at least one language that we were born into and that we can speak and write clearly and that can channel our thoughts. Sometimes that is channeled just to ourselves in a journal or as a series of notes, and sometimes they are broadcast to the world. With the internet, any of us can reach a global audience to observe, celebrate, and persuade others.
