Goodreads asked Day Rusk:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Day Rusk The best thing about being a writer is bringing to life characters. If you've done your job well, you bring those characters to life for readers. What the reader has to understand, is as a writer, I've lived with them for a long time, and I've taken a journey with them, and I've had a similar sense of discovery during the writing process. I can't convey the feeling I get after completing a sentence or paragraph I love, or discovering what's going to happen next. I recently wrote a blog entitled, "The Characters in my head...I Don't Believe I'm Crazy" which addresses the beauty of writing and imagination. I feel privileged to be able to do what I do, even though as a novelist I'm just starting out and trying to find my audience.
