Goodreads asked Kelli Stuart:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Kelli Stuart The awesome pay checks you get in the mail!

Just kidding. If you get into writing for the money, you might be disappointed.

I think the best thing about this writer life is the adventure of it all. It's a challenge, and it requires you to step outside your comfortable box and enter into an entirely new world. There's nothing comfortable about writing. It's hard work, and it can be terribly vulnerable.

But the feeling you get when you finally type THE END is magical. It's like holding your newborn baby in your arms for the first time. Suddenly all the pain melts away, and you feel such a sense of awe at this creation.

Yeah, that's definitely the best part.
