Goodreads asked M.M. John:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

M.M. John Being a writer actually sucks. You are never fully entrenched in reality, but in a bunch of alternative worlds, all existing in your mind. In some ways, you miss out, emotionally, mentally, on a lot of events because of it. You're never fully understood, and often, the world you created in your mind is so much better then this terrestrial sphere. It kinda sucks that its not real. I guess in a way, it's a double-edged sword. You get to live in multiple worlds, but you miss out on the real one.
