      @dragon-snapper  I know! LOL

      I have found that sometimes they hide writing majors and minors under English. I click English, and it gives me options like “Major in English,” “Major in English with emphasis in writing…” Usually one of those is “Minor in creative writing,” too

      You know you’re a writer when your Mom start calling you a geek.

      (Of course, I was already a geek before I started actively writing… but that’s beside the point…)

      You can pronounce it however you want.

        @dekreel … *whiny kid voice* BUT I DON’t WANT TO MAJOR IN ENGLISH WAAAAAAHHHHH!

        Too much reading and literary analysis and not enough writing. Haha! 😉

        XD I think I’m probably the nerdiest and weirdest one of my family. And I love it. BWAHAHAHA–sorry.

          You know you’re a writer when you watch an epic Winter Olympics commercial–super active people with amazing tricks–and you just say meekly, “I write books.”

          You know you’re a writer when you begin to describe the setting of a winter day as you take bulk trash to the curb.

            You know you’re a writer when the only part of maths you can stomach is algebra because it has letters in it …

              @pickupyourpenandwrite An incredible revelation–so that’s why I like algebra.

                You know you’re a writer when you unintentionally take a break from your current story, and when you come back, all your characters yell at you for leaving. (You also know your a writer when people who don’t exist yell at you.)

                  You know you’re a writer when you make up a minor character based on a name you like, then they take over, become a love interest, and you almost want to give them their own book.

                  You know you’re a writer when this describes your life.

                  You know you’re a writer when you read this dedication: “To the fictional; you don’t have to do what your authors tell you to.” and your first reaction is GET THAT BOOK AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER BEFORE THEY SEE IT!

                  You know you’re a writer when your sister informs you that your new goal in life is to be a better author than James Riley or she won’t read your books.

                    @aislinn-mollisong When I read “to the fictional; you don’t have to do what your authors tell you to”
                    Story Thieves!!! Is that from one or two I can’t remember?
                    *is waiting to get book 4*
                    Did. You. Read. The. Acknowledgements?! You must!
                    The dedication of three is great too. 😛

                    Did you also read Half upon a time? It’s a fairy tale rewrite.

                        You know you’re a writer when your non-writer friend wants to hear all about your story and your mind says “Um…where do I even start?”

                        And once you start explaining, the whole way through they’re like

                        And you’re sitting there…

                              You know you’re a writer when a new character demands a sequel before the first one is even written.

                                You know you are a writer when you are contemplating what made the villain of a tv show you are watching so good. And what made him so creepy.
