Goodreads asked Maura Jortner:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Maura Jortner The best thing about being a writer is being able to dream while sitting at my desk.

... it's also the most embarrassing thing at times, too. I'll be writing (READ: dreaming while typing) and a colleague of mine will stroll past my door. They'll glance in, then stop short, and giggle.
I turn to face them. "My face was doing something weird," I guess.
"Yup," they answer. "It was. You must be really into whatever you're working on."
"I was," I say with a small sigh and burning cheeks. "I was."
