Goodreads asked Richard L. Currier:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Richard L. Currier From a personal standpoint, being a writer allows you the unique freedom to create your own universe, to set your own rules, and to chart your own course in the life of the mind. From a social standpoint, writing enables you to contribute your thoughts and perceptions to your society and culture in an enduring form, and—in the process—to make your own unique contribution to the sum total of human knowledge.
