Goodreads asked Tamara Shoemaker:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Tamara Shoemaker For me? I love wearing my pajamas all day (until my husband pulls in the driveway. Then I run frantically through the house to find an outfit, so when he walks in the house, I can say with a nonchalant shrug, "Oh hey, you're home.")

More importantly, I love living more than one life. Of course, I enjoy my own life with my husband and my three children and the wild craziness of being everybody's chauffeur and cook and housekeeper and all that, but I'm wild to experience my characters' worlds too. And as an author, I can do that anytime I want.
