@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.

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

February 6, 2018 at 2:59 pm #62532You 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.)

February 7, 2018 at 6:12 pm #62654You 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.

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

February 8, 2018 at 10:33 am #62751You 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.
