Me next!!! I can tell you how to hide a body with a concerning level of detail but can't find the correct synonym for "walk" until I consult google for two straight hours :D

Tell me you are a writer without telling you are a writer.

I'll go first

I have 1000s of pinterest boards that all start with a "project something" as title.

obviously dietary requirements aren't a joke but my grandma sometimes runs errands for her church and i asked her what she's up to today and she said extremely seriously "ive got to track down the body of the gluten free christ, julia"

Fanfiction writers be like:

"here's the immensely time consuming 100K word novel-length passion project I'm working on between my real life job and family! It eats up hundreds of hours of my one and only life, causes me emotional harm, and I gain basically nothing from it! Also I put it on the internet for free so anyone can read if they want. Hope you love it!" :)

Random writer thought but...

Do you guys ever just research WAAAAAY too deep into one specific topic that you never end up using in a work? Like, I could probably tell you how to hold a fan in a provocative but innocent enough way whilst making eye contact across a ballroom but can't tell you one single time I've ever used it in a piece of writing???

What writers say: I just finished my first draft!

What writers mean: I've re-written this cursed book 20 times. It's a mess, but The Muse has deserted me and Brain.exe has stopped working. I can't even look at it anymore. It's traumatizing me. I need cocoa and a pillow.

AND THEY’RE FUCKING CORRECT

my dream as a fanfic writer is for one day, one of my fics to be someones comfort fic. like the fic that they reread when they don't feel good and want to be happy. i want my words to comfort someone one day

Bad news, y'all

You really gotta write the damn book to become a published author
