Ways to Know You're Becoming a Writer

1. You do a paid contract for something you care about. The project ends up getting canceled, but you don't care because your check cleared.
2. You turn down a byline-and-presspass-only gig because you know you'll just go to the event and screw around because you don't care about the material and you're time is better spent doing something that pays you money, or playing video games.
