Goodreads asked Jeff Spaur:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Jeff Spaur Exploring worlds or situations I'll most likely never experience in real life. I remember writing my first scene where a character gets killed. I changed the outcome because I just couldn't do it. I thought to myself, "Does this make me want to kill someone?" After listening to other authors speak, they helped me realize that exploring ideas is perfectly okay. It's how we get good stories, movies, TV, video games, etc. This allowed me to keep moving forward with my writing instead of worrying about why I was writing a certain scene.
