As writer’s we’re passionate about words, we love to create characters, dialogue, and plots, and we enjoy reading. For a few laughs, I hope you enjoy this funny (yet totally true), blog post. YOU KNOW YOU’RE A WRITER WHEN:
1. You write your Christmas cards as if you’re writing the next Great Gatsby.
2. You go to parties and read the titles of the host’s books, and secretly judge the host on their chosen literature.
3. You know at least ten synonyms for the word “blue.”
4. You become so emotionally attached to your characters that you actually cry when something bad happens to them or you call your mother to tell her what wonderful event took place in your character’s life.
5. You never leave home without a notebook and a pen.
6. You always use proper grammar.
7. You narrate in your head as you go about doing everyday tasks.
8. It’s 3 AM in the morning and you cannot fall asleep because you need to open a Word Document and begin writing because your writer’s block finally went away and now you’re just full of ideas.
9. You collect words and sentences.
10. In your free time, all you do is write, think about writing, or you read.
11. You leave a character unnamed for more than 10 pages simply because you are waiting for it to hit you because the name must capture everything the character stands for.
12. Something terrible happens in your life or a friend’s life and you think, “Wow, this is good material for my next book.”
