Goodreads asked Randall Sharpe:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Randall Sharpe Getting to look back on my old hecklers and laugh at them because I published my book first is certainly one benefit. In seriousness though, it is extremely therapeutic for me specifically, as someone with mental illness who was once manipulated into believing some very strange and harmful things. Getting those ideas and concepts out of my head and onto the page has been especially good for my recovery process, as it helps me better distinguish what is and isn't real.
