Goodreads asked Brian Kindall:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Brian Kindall The best thing is making the little discoveries along the way. I'll be writing with my head down when some phrase or metaphor will come out onto the page and just click perfectly with what I'm trying to say. Then it's as if a window has opened inside of me. I have this lucid moment where I'm in love with literature, in love with humanity, and I just feel so privileged to be on this journey with everyone involved. I get a glimpse of my own mythology at those times - all those moments and influences in my life that have led me to write that perfect thing. It puts a lump in my throat. I pause, whisper a thank you to the gods, and then move on.
