"I am a writer. We are the people who stay up past 12 AM finishing a story. We're misunderstood and underpaid. We spend our free time fixing plots. But we bring to life characters and a world society never knew about. I'm a writer and I love it."


Please don't be upset
If it takes me longer
To text
To word it just right
To use the right punctuation
& not use txt talk

I'm really sorry if I don't reply at all
Or if days pass without even a hello
Because you see,
When I gave you those 9 numbers
I didn't give you instructions
And when you texted,
Giving me your 9 numbers
You didn't give me any guidelines

I don't know what to text
When to text
Or how to text

Is 8 A.M. too early?
Is midnight too late?
Are good morning texts appreciated?
And are good night texts awkward?

Can I send you my really good selfies?
And my social media usernames?
Can I send you my tweets?

I'll text you happy birthday
Oh, wait when is it again?
And Merry Christmas
But you'll probably busy
So maybe I just won't
Happy Valentine's Day?
That seems kinda weird
Hanukkah?
Do you celebrate that?
I don't really know

& what r ur opinions on txt talk?
Do u think it's cool?
Or is it weird?
Is it okay if I write normal?

Can I text you when I'm happy?
Text you when I'm sad?
Can I text you when I need a friend?
Can I text you and ask you to hang out?
Can I text you just to say hi?
Can I text you just because?
Let me know when I can text you
Because I really really want to
