Skills required

So on Friday May 17th and the 22nd I'll be at a local high school to talk to the teens about writing. On the 17th it'll be for a Job Fair and while I'm there I have to talk to them about skills and requirements needed to be a writer.

I texted my best friend ladytairngire and this is what we came up with.

1. Must have own pen and paper. Computer is a plus.
2. Must know speak good and stuff <-- written improperly on purpose. ;)
3. Must stare off into space.
4.Drink lots of coffee.
5. Chocolate is a must.
6. Must endure bouts of crying and crippling self doubt.
7. Be fluent in social media.
8. Children optional.
