#WritersCoffeeClub 9/30 What dumb things do people say when you tell them you're a writer?
For the first 15 years I was a vegetarian, when anyone found out, they'd say, "Where do you get your protein?" There is no equivalent response for being a writer. Most people are nice and ask what I write.
More annoying are people who spontaneously lie about having bought my book? Like you could just not do that? I do not understand that at all. There's literally zero clout I can award them. Tant pis.
