It is the one way to go to the places I want to go to and meet the people I want to meet. But there is more than that. There's a satisfaction in exercising the discipline of crafting a story so that it actually works. I write software during the day, and there are some parallels. Software has to work right and, in a different way, so does a story.
But mostly I like reading my stories to my wife (can't read her the software, I tried :-)).
