Goodreads asked Stefania Shaffer:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Stefania Shaffer My answer would be so much longer if the question were, "What's the worst thing about being a writer?" It would be the business-end of writing that gets in the way of the creative part. Building a platform, marketing, blogging, preparing speeches--I love these pieces, but they take as much time as it does for me to write a couple of chapters. The BEST part of of being a writer is experiencing characters coming to life. It really is magical when their voices start speaking faster than you can type!
