Goodreads asked Stephen Strutt:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Stephen Strutt Now that's a very good question! In a word, I would have to say:- EXPRESSION! Or elaborating on that idea, the ability to be able to accurately express ones own ideas, or even the ideas of others, in a way that others like and enjoy. Writing is communication, and we all need much better communication with each other, on this speeded-up planet, where all to often, people don't make enough time for each other. I read that one book best-seller, stated that being a writer is lonely. That depends! I think that it is fun to be able to write and tell others one's experiences; and even put it all into a novel, by creating interesting characters. As a writer I know that I am only just getting started, as I would like to write about hundreds of topics. I have already written many articles, which you can find on my website:- www.outofthebottomlesspit.co.uk
