Goodreads asked Tudor Robins:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Tudor Robins Well, at the most basic level, it's getting to do something I love. Except, not just love, but am compelled to do. I have to tell stories in my head, and then they only feel complete if I write them down. I had one particular story that ran in my head for about four years straight when I was a kid. Whenever I was alone, or had quiet time, I'd pick up where I left off, or even go back a little bit in the story to review it, and maybe make some subtle edits. When your brain works like that, I think you have to be a writer!

More recently, as a published writer, the most amazing thing has been connecting with people from all over the world and seeing the effect my words have on them depending on their background, and what they're experiencing in their lives when they read my books. It's very eye-opening to see how different people interpret the same words.
