Goodreads asked Ian Minielly:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Ian Minielly The best thing about being a writer is putting ones own ideas and thoughts to paper. While we all know what it feels like to clock in or show up to work at the proscribed times and do whatever it is we are supposed to do for a set period of time for an agreed upon dollar figure that government then reduces significantly.

With writing, the author decides when to write and what to write. There is a free market economy involved in that the author may be rewarded with sales if their product is good and people interested in that kind of book can find it.
