Goodreads asked Stephen Roth:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Stephen Roth That's an easy one! You can write about anything that you want --and you can be as creative as you want. Then, you can go and change anything that you want. Essentially, you are a painter but using words to paint. I can't think of anything where you can be more creative. As the French would say, "libre comme un oiseau." You are free as a bird when writing.
