Goodreads asked Kathy Manos Penn:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Kathy Manos Penn I'm fond of calling myself a word nerd, and I get a kick out of crafting a well-written sentence or entire story that folks can understand and enjoy.

And, I am delighted when I hear from newspaper readers that they look forward to the paper so they can check out my column.

Now that I'm writing cozy mysteries, I love the effusive reviews! I love seeing that what I set out to convey in my characters came across loud and clear. And, yes, I'm always a tiny bit afraid that someone won't like what I write, but hopefully the opinions of those who do like it will outweigh that of those who don't!!

I feel fortunate not only to have found my passion but also to have built a following!
