Goodreads asked Joanne Harris:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Joanne Harris The voodoo. The knowledge that, if I get it right, that little pattern of marks on the page could make someone I've never met laugh, or cry, or eat chocolate, or remember something they thought they'd forgotten forever. It's the closest thing to magic there is.
