Goodreads asked Frederic S. Durbin:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Frederic S. Durbin The best thing is the joy of using your gifts to make the world better in the way that only you can. It's indescribably wonderful to meet or hear from readers who have loved your story -- a story that began so small, in your own mind, and only you and your family and friends knew about it. Then the story is out there in the world, and other people can enjoy it. There's nothing like that feeling. You feel that you've been part of something special, something miraculous.
