Something I love about this job: It relies on your persistence, its challenging, and I am creating an entire world and I'm giving the characters a way to be heard, and a way out of their world, and I get to solve the conflicts with my pen. I get to live a billion lives in ink, and others will have that experience because of me, also. I just want to give back the feeling that books have given to me.

The only thing I wouldn't like about the job is having a book be rejected from a publisher, which every writer fears, yet the odds of that lay entirely on the responsibility of their own shoulders.
Other than that I love it!
