Let’s be honest – writers think a bit differently than the rest
of the world. I call it left of center. Do we choose to be a writer? We might think we do, but I seriously think
we are born to write or not to write. J
There are perks to being a writer. Seriously – think about it and enjoy!
1. No one questions the hour you keep.
2. You can stay in your pajamas all day
and no one will call you lazy.
3. The FBI won’t show up on your front
step even if you look up gun, ammunition, side arms, knives, famous murders,
poisons, etc. on the internet.
4. You can plan a murder, discuss it out
loud, and still not get arrested.
You won’t be put on suicide watch
even if you admit there are people talking inside your head.
5. If you’re ticked with the world - go
ahead – kill someone. You’ll get away
with it on paper.
6. Fall in love – time and time again –
and still not cheat on your husband.
Go ahead – admit you live in another
world – I promise they won’t put on ‘special’ meds.
7. You get paid for imagining the
unimaginable.
8. You have an excuse not to spend time
with the in-laws.
Do you want to share your favorite benefit of being a
writer? Please do. J Let’s have fun
with this. J

Really cute post. I'm always looking up weird stuff on the internet. I think it's cool being a writer. Best Wishes.
ReplyDeleteI especially like item 3. I bet the computers of most mystery writers would show a very strange list of sites visited.

thanks, Kathy. I think it's great being a writer, too. Janet, I worry if I'll flag the internet police with my requests for information on guns and poisons..LOL
