Goodreads asked Jack Castle:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Jack Castle The greatest thing about being a writer is it forces you to experience new things you might never normally do. For example, one of my future novels takes place in the middle of the Everglades. So I flew down there to do some research. My best friend and I did a canoe trip down a river teeming with gators. We tried gator meat at a seedy, biker bar and nearly got eaten by a gator later that night. Okay, I nearly got eaten by a gator, because my best friend runs a lot faster than I do.
