Goodreads asked Richard Phillips:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Richard Phillips Saying to attractive women that you are a writer. Next best thing to having a dog or a baby with you. (Of course, I am a writer of fiction, so that may just be a figment of my imagination.)

PS Deep philosophical question for the day: What things, apart from imagination, come in figments?
