5 Observations About Writers
Writers are one of the most unique mammals in the human zoo. Each one is different, but there are a few common traits I’ve noticed.
Writers are:
Quirky
This is an unavoidable part of the creative genetic make-up of an author. It shows in their language and their actions.
Insecure
All those rejections sometimes make for wicked nervous tics. Try not to stare.
Scatter-brained
When a new plot twist ripens, the rest of life is forgotten...meaning schedules get forgotten or mid-sentence they just might dash off to scribble down a fantastic new idea.
People Watchers
Writers are always scoping out a room full of people for new characters. Nothing to worry about, unless they're staring at you.
Motivated
In general, writers are some of the best self-starters in the world. They have to be, or their stories would never get finished.
