Goodreads asked Benjamin Cross:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Benjamin Cross There are so many great things about being a writer that it's hard to pick just one. If I had to, I'd say that it's just about as close as you can get to being completely free and unfettered. When you're writing, you're creating, and nobody and nothing can override what your fingers bring to life. As time has passed, the stories I've written have solidified into definable chapters of my life, in and of themselves, and those chapters never cease to edify and exhilarate. My characters are like good friends growing old with me, and it's a great comfort.
