you don't need drugs to get high. Just a pen and paper.


So true. :D
Had I the heavens embroider'd cloths,
I would spread the cloths under your feet.
But I being poor, have only my dreams,
So tread softly, for you tread on my life.

You know you're a writer when you watch a movie and comment on the way the dialogue is written.

Not sure if this has already been done:
You know you're a writer when you watch a movie and think that it would make an awesome book. Then you look everywhere to see if it has been made into a book.

I know this because I've done if before. I have novels to every single one of favorite films, almost.

You’re dependant on music ninety-nine percent of the time to write anything (like I’m doing now. Sad, really).

Yeah thats me, I would die with out music.


You know you're a writer when you hear voices in your head.

You know you're a writer when those voices start multiplying,

You know you're a writer when those voices start arguing.

I actually fight with those voices :D


Your "boyfriend" is your heroine's love interest (Very, very guilty).

He he he, yeah...

Yeah I am crazy!

Join the club! (Hey, that last one was mine. So glad to know I'm not the only one!)

You know your a writer when you consider taking the job of an editor just to learn everything about the business.

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 if everyone around you is totally engrossed in watching James Bond extricate himself from his latest cliff hanger escapade and you are sitting with pencil in hand making notes about the couple in front of you.

Oh, lol. :lol:

You know you're a writer when there are oxygen lines, intravenous feeding tubes, and large Starbucks syringes attached to your desk, and nobody in the family notices any of this anymore.

Nutty dahling, you never cease to ... amaze. :wink:

You know you're a writer when printer ink, paper and your "special" pen priorities are on your shopping list. You often return home to discover you got the book you wanted on writing the perfect synopsis but you forgot the milk

You know you're a writer when you go around excitedly telling people about a new plot idea you have.

You know you're a writer when you sit in front of your computer or page squealing excitedly because your plot was successfully transferred from your brain to your page in perfect words and timing.

Guilty. Except I go around the house and have to tell somebody (anybody) that my plot finally fell into place.

You know you're a writer when you suddenly spit out quotes from your own book.
