Goodreads asked Colleen J. Shogan:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Colleen J. Shogan The best thing about writing fiction is that you can make it up! It's a great creative outlet. I've been writing about political science my entire life and nonfiction writing necessarily restricts you to analyzing the facts at hand. But fiction writing allows you to change your mind, alter a character, or create a new world. It's a very liberating experience.
