Goodreads asked Debra R. Sanchez:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Debra R. Sanchez For me, the best thing about being a writer is see the words that insist on escaping my mind become words on a page.

My favorite writing quote is by Alfred Kazin, and appeared in "Think Magazine" in February, 1963:

"The writer writes in order to teach himself, to understand himself, to satisfy himself. The publishing of his ideas, though it brings gratification, is a curious anticlimax."
