You know you're a writer when you roam around YWS looking at people's avatars and procrastinating while you still have an unfinished piece.

@Artemis28 I find both your posts very relatable. I happen to be doing that last one this very moment :P

You know you're a writer when the climax of your day is logging on to YWS to see if anyone has reviewed your work.

You know you're a writer when you're on YWS in class and trying not to smile as you write or socialize with your brethren of fellow writers.

When your teacher assigns you a paper that must be "no more and no less" than a given length and you beg to be able to write an extra page or twelve.
And the heart is hard to translate
It has a language of its own
It talks in tongues and quiet sighs,
And prayers and proclamations
