Goodreads asked Aften Brook Szymanski:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Aften Brook Szymanski I have a distractible mind. Writing has taught me how to focus a thought and follow it through--something I used to think I wasn't capable of.

It gives me clarity in my every day thinking (particularly when I revise--I learn how to think in fresh ways)

Writing helps me deal with my own flaws more gently.

It's also my favorite day dream time--to write.
