Goodreads asked Jim Davies:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Jim Davies I've worked in lots of art forms, but something special about writing is that you have complete control over the final product. This is also true of painting and drawing, but is generally not true of choreography, screenwriting, writing scripts for plays, stage or film directing, and so on. When you write you can make it just the way you want it, and are only limited by your own abilities. It's also something you can do for the rest of your life, unlike, say, mountain biking.
