Maybe you're not a writer, but you have a friend who is and you think they have some really odd behaviors. Or you're a writer and you already know how odd you are.
Well, these memes are for you. You'll either be nodding your head in agreement, or you'll have some "ah-ha" insights about your friends who write.
1. Life is the best fodder
2. Wait, so you mean characters in my stories don't count as real friends?
3. Surfing the Internet? No, I'm totally doing research
4. P.S. Unless you're someone like J.K. Rowling, you're not going to be rich and famous (so make sure you really love it)
5. Writers may have bad memories, but they are also very detailed oriented
6. Writers are empathetic. And awesome
7. The caffeine does help the words flow a lot better
8. Writer's doubt is never ending
9. If the ideas would translate well onto the computer screen, that'd be great
10. A lot of misconceptions
11. Be careful how you treat writers; you may be their next victim
12. The writing cycle. It's brutal
13. Words come more naturally when not spoken
14. It's OK when you write something wrong intentionally
15. Writers = weird. But in the very best way
16. Raise your hand if you're guilty. raises hand
17. Now back to work! These words aren't going to write themselves
If there were no writers, there'd be no books. Without books, our world would be very dull. Writing is not an easy task and takes much effort and perseverance. Write, revise, write, revise, edit, edit, revise, write ... It's enough to make anyone insane. Or maybe it's only for those who are already insane?
