I dont go out to read. I just stay at home on my laptop, though sometimes this makes me get headaches. On that occasion I take out my dog for a walk and make a cup of coffee to wake me up when I get back. I'm writing a pirate story.
I loved this video. I carry most of that stuff with me...though I don't have coffee receipts more like smoothie receipts for me. And I usually carry junior mints and hand sanitzer with me as well. Good luck with your book this year.
I have all that random junk in my writer's bag. My friends always ask, "Melissa, what the hell do you have in your backpack?" Except I don't bring my laptop, but my trusty 'ol USB drive as a stylish necklace. I have like five notebooks filled with plot less, random writing when I'm supposed to be taking notes. No one understands why, but then again, who does?
And for variety, add a Twix fun-size bar from Halloween.
Thank you for posting this. Now I know what I should start carrying around with me everywhere. I always have most of that stuff and some more with me while I'm out and about with a backpack. I also have books with me in case I get writers block, reading helps me get out of the writers block But I never thought of having a bunch of pencils with me. I always just have a couple of refillable pencils with me, but never have the extra led I end up needing and I can't carry a laptop around with me.
Um... ok wow. haha You just described me minus the really cool laptop. haha I didn't know ALL Writers carried bags full of notebooks, pens, and other seemingly useless crap. lol
That's a lot to have in one bag. Mine is probably worse. I found a backpack I used in the first grade and found a two stale cookies and a mess of papers and doodles the I have hidden deep within the junkyard I call a room. Oh! I have the exact same laptop. Mine acts retarded sometimes, but is overall good to me. I can't say I'm always good to it. My dogs will make a toy out of anything...
Your bag-contents exploded to create my room. Grr, I live in the middle of nowhere, and I don't get a drivers license until next year, so there's no chance for me to go anywhere to write, unless I want to go in the middle of the woods, which I don't.
wow. This is the anatomy of my bag pretty much. Not even kidding. Except for the laptop, I usually write it all out by hand, then type it up, if the ideas go anywhere... and minus the tooth... unless it WAS an eraser (and I really dont need to know)... lol
Who understands writers anyway, you ask? OTHER WRITERS!!! (Yay for writers!!)
(I am an aspiring writer myself, and GREATLY admire you and look up to you for getting a book deal! Congrats! I'm looking mucho forward to actually seeing Bran Hambric in my local bookstore, buying it and reading it, btw. :D )
Aaaaand...OT, but I have to say you, sir, are the COOLEST male soon-to-be official Twilighter (once you finish it!) that I know of! :D
The movie did Lemony Snicket absolutely NO justice at all. -head shake- Except for Jim Carey, which was the only good thing about it, in my opinion.
I've gotten better about my own bag. I used to use my library book bag, but now I've improved to a smaller cloth bag. (I carry around way too much more than I should for the average high school student.)
I wish I could take my laptop with me. It'd be....just ASKING for some high school punk to steal it, though. =/
Lol I am a writer too and I have all that crap in my bag (:
