Goodreads asked Lester Picker:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Lester Picker The freedom to imagine a story; the joy of losing oneself in the characters' progression; the high of simply typing what the characters tell you and realizing that you've just completed an entire chapter in one sitting; the satisfaction of wrapping up your story arc; the sheer delight of seeing your book in print; and the ultimate bliss of readers' loving your work.
