Goodreads asked Norma Budden:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Norma Budden There are so many wonderful aspects about being a writer; trying to narrow it down to just one "best" aspect is almost impossible so I will narrow it down to two.

#1. I get to communicate with characters (who have their own voices, thoughts and feelings) without people thinking I've lost my mind.

#2. I get to know some fantastic people along the way (my created characters and real people who often become friends) so the experience is definitely rewarding.
