Goodreads asked Kelly N. Jane:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Kelly N. Jane After many years staying home to take care of my two girls and owning my own business, I struggle with the confinement of someone else's rules. Being a writer allows me to work where and when I want, with whomever I want. Make no mistake, however; I treat it as a business. I don't believe in the "waiting for the muse" system of inspiration. I go into my office every day, and I write every day. Writing isn't a hobby for me, so I don't treat it like one. Now, that doesn't mean that my office might not be the patio on a sunny day, the car when I travel with my husband for his work or a coffee shop when I'm meeting with my other writer friends. Battling my self-confidence and meeting deadlines are not so great, but I'll take that pressure to work at something that gives me the freedom to do what I love anytime.
