If my characters get married or engaged, I end up killing one off.

That's how I roll.

Kaitlyn *I Will Never Let Go* | 44 comments You know you're a writer if you can't walk through an art musuem without making up a story for every single painting.
If you can't walk through a historic building without writing a story about it later.
If yousit in the empty back row at school just so you can imagine your characters sitting next to you.
If you accidently mention your characters name in conversation like they're a real person and your friend says "who's that" and you say "somebody I made up" instead of something normal (like "my cousin you've never met...who lives in Sweden).
If you see a dude buying a burrito and think "my character would sooo do that!" Idk where that came from it was random, but it happened to me once.
If you follow somebody through the library because you think it's possible they are your character come to life!

I was nodding and totally going along with this deep little comment...until I hit the burrito. Also, I wish I had a cousin that lived in Sweden..

You know you're a writer if you wake up with your pen and notebook on your face.

You know you're a writer if you are fully intending to write part of one of your stories based on MCR's music video for "Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)".

You know you're a writer if you say to your sister, "I need a stupid boyfriend name and a bunch of gay guy names" and she automatically gives suggestions without questioning.

You know you're a writer when you frantically search your house for that random notebook you used to use in Writing class so you can find one random paragraph in it that you remember liking that you could possibly use in your new story...


Maria [the clockwork creeps on useless lives] (mariachhile) | 8772 comments Mod

You know you're a writer when you know exactly how your story will go, but have no idea how to put it on paper.


message 236: by Isaac (new)

Isaac | 8014 comments OH MY GOODNESS, YES.

I love that guy.

Isaac | 8014 comments You know you're a writer if you read something you wrote a while ago and it made you cry.

Brigid ✩ | 11973 comments Mod
Ooh, my writing always makes me cry. Usually because I hate it so much.

Sometimes for other reasons, though.


message 246: by Isaac (new)

Isaac | 8014 comments The one I read I killed somebody. :P

Brigid ✩ | 11973 comments Mod
Killing people off doesn't usually make me cry. Although, I don't kill off a lot of characters at all really.


message 248: by Isaac (new)

Isaac | 8014 comments It was a fan fiction. *blushes*


message 249: by Elliott (new)

Elliott | 22634 comments Mod
I still haven't killed anyone yet. Except for Erica. Who is dead at the beginning of the story.

tesni (akhmatova) | 5031 comments It feels like the characters drop like flies in The Many Lives of Clio Sinclair. There are a fair few deaths in T2010NNWTCCT as well, but war and stuff is a huge part of the story, so I do have an excuse.
