I remember one time I typed a three-page e-mail to someone summarizing all six Star Wars movies that took me an hour to write, and all I got back was "Oh. That was long. I didn't read all of it."NOEZ!!!

You know you're a writer if you talk to your characters on social networking sites...Lav, I really don't know if we're writers, or really insane...
The best people are insane...
*tears welling up in eyes* Aw, thanks!!! You just made my day!

Uhh....can I contradict you on that?
The "mmhhmm" you keep posting. Does that mean affirmative? No? What does that mean?
Okay. Figured. Just was curious and it was bugging me. A lot.

Simple as that.

omg I'm ALWAYS doing that!!!!
You know you're a writer when you:* Use your and your best friend's old/dead imaginary friends as characters
* Are writing three novels at once, off and on
* Read books, but only to get ideas for your novel
You know you're a writer if writer's block makes you wanna either shoot something or curl up in a corner and die.*debates between shooting and dying*

i usually go with shooting something. A .357 seems to work pretty well for me. Try it sometime! *picks up pistol and starts shooting at the wall*
NOOOO! I don't wanna shoot my imaginary friends, even if they refuse to talk to me!!
so shoot the wall!
You know when you're a writer when you begin to narrate your actions in your head and find this totally normal.

you know ur a writer if in ur dreams, u r the main character of ur book!
If you think to yourself "Oh good,I'm not the only one" with any of the things written in this Topic!! ;) *totally guilty*

E-GASPIE! THAT REMINDS ME OF A PHANTOM OF THE OPERA SONG!!! I SHALL TYPE LYRICS!!!

"No One Would Listen"- Andrew Lloyd Webber- Male Solo (but chicks can sing it anyways ;-))
No one would listen
No one but her
Heard as the outcast hears
Shamed into solitude
Shunned by the multitude
I learned to listen
In my dark, my heart heard music
I longed to teach the world
Rise up and reach the world
No one would listen
I alone could hear the music
Then at last a voice in the gloom
Seemed to cry, "I hear you!
"I hear your fears,
"Your torment and your tears!"
She saw my lonliness
Shared in my emptiness
No one would listen
No one but her
Heard as the outcast hears
No one would listen
No one but her
Heard as the outcast hears
*music ends; aaannnddd... SCENE*
...I'm sorry, but I had to do that.

Dude love the username!
You wknow you're a writer if you have tried to blow up the asylum you were in with a plastic spoon and would have succeeded had you not been kicked out because you were scaring the other inmates.
Oh, Cassie dear. (: Long time no see!
I know. I've been gone on vacation three weeks in a row, but I"m back for a while.
And now I'm going shopping. Goodbye, my lovelies!
