Goodreads asked Deborah Hopkinson:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Deborah Hopkinson Writers keep learning. I'm especially lucky to write nonfiction and historical fiction and so whenever I do research I am learning something new. Writing also challenges me to solve new problems -- whether I'm working on a picture book, a novel, or nonfiction.
