Goodreads asked J.V. Hilliard:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

J.V. Hilliard Bringing to life characters and plots for all to see and (hopefully) enjoy. Sometimes characters or even ideas for ones only exist in an author's head. Once you put them to paper (or key strokes these days), they are immortalized. Do them (and yourself) that favor. There is no feeling like when someone comes up to you and asks you about one of your villains or heroes, wanting to know why they did or didn't do something. They have life, even if it is only through the shared experience of your novel.
