Goodreads asked Jared Morrison:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Jared Morrison Everything. Everything about it is also equally terrifying, but I wouldn't trade it for anything else. Putting your art into the world. Having the stories come through you, rather than of you. Reading back a sentence later on that you can barely recall writing. Being moved by the music created by the words. Telling the stories that only you are capable of telling, because even if they're tales that have been told before, they haven't been told by you, in your words, from the whispers you heard in your heart.
