10 Things Only Writers Will Understand
1) Your best ideas will happen just as you're about to drift off to sleep. You promise yourself you'll remember everything in the morning, but of course this never happens and you find yourself wracking your brain for hours trying to remember that witty bit of banter your semi-conscious state had dreamed up.
2) The internet is out to get you! You know you've set yourself a word limit of 1000 words a day but that youtube video of Jon Snow at a dinner party is just too good to be played once!
3) When they find out you're writing a novel friends and family will only ever ask you questions about your book. 'How many pages is it at now?' 'When will we be able to read it?' whilst you grind your teeth and wish the ground would swallow you up.
4) If you're in the zone and the words are flowing, toilet breaks become a thing of the past.
5) You're internet history looks as dodgy as hell due to constant googling of story ideas.
6) You obsess about commas way more than is healthy.
7) You often read back what you've written and wonder what the hell you were thinking when you wrote it.
8) You'll have days of complete confidence in your writing followed by weeks of feeling inadequate and wondering why the hell you set yourself up for so much criticism.
9) You'll receive looks of pure hatred from your dog and realise it's been days since you walked him/her.
10) You take a journal everywhere and take pride in the fact that you own one, yet you never actually write anything in it.
