Goodreads asked Chloe Garner:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Chloe Garner If you're looking for something artistic, you've come to the wrong author. A lot of authors say that the best thing about being a writer is the ability to get paid for making things up, and that's valid, but for me the best thing about being a writer is being able to set my own schedule, my own pace, and my own interests. I invest a huge amount of time at this - it certainly isn't easy or low-commitment - but I have seasons where I know I can do more and I know I can do less, and I can work around them. I can chase the glitter as it sparkles at me and write what I want to write, as I keep in mind what readers are excited about. On days that I'm not energetic enough to write, there are always other things I can do instead to keep up with my schedule and balance out my objectives.
