You know you're a writer when your mum yells at you for reading and writing too much.
For some people, their parents would be ecstatic, but noooo...

You know you're a writer when what you want to relieve boredom is a pad of paper and a writing instrument.

You know you're a writer when you plan on putting a small notebook and writing instrument in every pocket that will hold one to make sure boredom never happens.

Ink is blood. Paper is bandages. The wounded press books to their heart to know they're not alone.

You know you're a writer when you bring notepads and writing instruments on every vacation, even on one day trips to the mall. Just in case.

I am soo guilty. I even bring my writing book when I go to camp. As in the tent-pitching, gadjet-making camp. And I cram it into my handbag. Figures.

You know you're a writer when you're about to pass out from pain and think: at least I know how that feels now for my writing.

Yeah, I almost did pass out from pain recently, and I really did think that. :oops:

I almost passed out in choir once two years ago, and I wasn't even like. OMG, I hate this. I was kinda glad it happened because now I know what it feels like. haha.
We're an odd bunch huh?

You know you're a writer when you have turned your room into an "office" with books, a computer and a storyboard.

Yes, I'm about to put in a giant notepad in my room to use as a storyboard!

So agreed. I almost passed out during choir practice too, only 3 years ago. I was like.. cool.

That sounds frighteningly familiar. :wink:

So tread softly, for you tread on my life.

(100th reply to this thread here. oh yes. :D)

You know you're a writer when you can pick out various story ideas from catching the ends of sentences of random conversations in the school hallways.

You know you're a writer when you write a poem to get revenge on your literature teacher who insulted you. (I did!)

You know you're a writer when you have a little notebook to write down all the ideas you have.
You also know it when you have three of those notebooks, one for your room, your coat pocket, and your purse.

I have the same problem! My mom thinks I'm becoming a Satan worshiper because of all the Vampire books I read... xD

You know you're a writer when you just listen to one song over and over again, just to come up with a story.
I want to do many, many things with my life, but I'm way too scared to really say. Writing, I guess is a way of being able to so all the things I want and not worry about being hurt.

You know your a writer when your literature teacher yells at you everyday to put up your notebook and gives you funny looks when you talk about the contents of your notebook with your friend who is also getting yelled at.
Yep that's Cat_910 and I everyday.
