Goodreads asked Harker Jones:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Harker Jones The best thing about being a writer is having other worlds to disappear into. We all do it through books and film and television and storytelling of any sort, but when you create that world (even if it's firmly based in the real world), it's more alive, more vivid. It's a respite from the horrors of the real world—even if what you write is horror! And, of course, the characters are your friends. So when you visit one of the worlds you created, you're also visiting old friends. It's very comforting.
