You Might Be A Writer If...

[Drusilla]

You might be a writer if you think about your characters every time you go to bed.

[Z. C. Bolger]

I have, unfortunetly, heard people say lol out loud. In fact, I've caught myself a couple times about to say "lol". How sad is that!?

I say LOL, but in a funny sort of "yeah, I just said that" sort of way.

You might be a writer if you've resorted to writing on napkins, toliet paper, receipts, etc.
You might be a writer if you have spent hours looking for a writing utensil, or anything that could resemble one, on that horrifying occasion you actually forgot to stuff one in a pocket.

You might be a writer if every time someone really annoys you, you plot how you can write them into your next book, where they'll get their comeuppance
Or is that just me?

Guilty - same with quotes I overhear. People say some odd things.


You might be a writer if you get excited about buying really nice notebooks.

[Domino]

I love notebooks.

You might be a writer if...

...you grew up viewing most of your life from behind a book. ...The average amount of books the other kids planned to read for the "readathon" at primary school was a smidgen of the amount that you'd have read that week regardless of whether you were being sponsored or not.

...when you listen to music you see scenes from your story play out in your head.

So very true. Made the mistake of buying a new one before I was finished with the old one... oh the temptation.


You might be a writer if you have gotten so use to walking into walls due to thinking out a scene, it doesn't even phase you anymore.

Very guilty. I've never watched a movie where this didn't happen to me.

You might be a writer if you sometimes play fighting games and war games to decide the outcome of a battle in your novel.
