Goodreads asked Eric John:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Eric John The act of writing forces me to listen to inspiration in my soul. I tried to find a different word for “forces,” but it’s the right word.

Words, meanings and answers surge through my fingers and surprise my eyes, yet only in response to a question inviting an inspired answer.

Each of us is special and unique, divinely so. So too are the questions that only we can ask, receiving the inspired answers only we can hear and then share. Discovering our own answers and hearing another’s helps us to discover ourselves together. Writing forces, me down this path.

What are you bound to write, my friend?
