This is great! And just cheesy enough. :) I actually once read a story told entirely in bumper stickers; it was published as creative non-fiction.

Hey girl! Just thought I'd let you know that you might want to check out my post today.... I'm trying to find a home for my unicorns. I've decided it's time to let them go! :) :(

Talk to you soon!

Oh, I need a bumper sticker like that! I like the "writer unleashed" one and the "I read therefore I write".

AVR said...

I also like that one, I read therefore I write. I keep reading about reading everything you can, so that you can more easily come up with ideas, and then they say to write,write, and write.

I like the ones 'Be nice to me, I'm a writer', and Writer's Anonymous'. Imagine if there was a group like that, with 12 steps for writers, to cope with their novels, characters and writer's block...

Love so many of these! I think my favorite is "my muse is asleep and it won't wake up!"

How about these ideas?
"My heart smiles when I write."
"Power to the Writer"
"Do Not Disturb. Writer at Work."

AVR said...

I like your idea for a Writers' Anonymous group. I do not think that has been done before. Maybe you can start one up where you live? Let me know if you do. I might look into it myself. Thank you for this idea.

AVR said...

Septembermom, these are great! Thank you. I especially like: My heart smiles when I write.

I really like 'I read therefore I write'

Others I can come up with are:

'who wrote it?' as in 'who dunnit'
and
'love don't live here anymore, only writing about it does'.

Great post.

I am glad you liked the post. I really like: "love does not live here anymore, only writing about it does". Thank you.
