I feel a little sorry for non-writers sharing a home with writers.
It’s got to be challenging, sometimes. And most likely no one warned you it was going to be. Writers should come with warning labels.
So I came up with some friendly warnings. :) You can check them out over on A Good Blog is Hard to Find.
Fortunately I’m not living with a writer >:D

OMG, awesome post. And so true. =o)
Love those! So spot on. I hardly ever use a notebook anymore, but a really pretty one beckons me. And don’t get me started on pens. I don’t share my special pens.
The moodiness thing, and all the rest, yes, yes, yes. Too funny. But true.
Ha ha! LOVE this! And true. What is it with notebooks, post-its, and pens? Gotta have em!

Heading over there now, Elizabeth

This sounds too good to miss! I’m off to check it out. I must admit, there are times (many) when I feel back for my poor hubby. LOL!
Funny and true! I love the thing about not raiding our stash. Hand over the chocolate and no one will get hurt!
Elizabeth, great post! I resemble all of that, but instead of turning on the light in the middle of the night to scribble down an idea, I let it go around and around in my head all night, not getting any sleep! And then sometimes I forget what it was in the morning anyway!
We really should come with warnings! Off I go … :)
Cold As Heaven–And you might want to keep the list mum…that way you can still seem mysterious to your wife (who is probably wondering about your odd, writerly behavior!)
B.E. Sanderson–Thanks!
Jaleh–I do most of my writing on my laptop, but I *still* can’t resist a cool notebook. And I have notebooks all over my house. :) I need a housekeeper…
BettyZade–There’s just something about them that attracts writers. And highlighters! And fancy pens. We should all ask for Office Max gift cards for Christmas…
Heather–Half the time mine looks like a deer in the headlights! I think he never knows what I’m going to do next…
Karen–Thanks!
