Here are the first 10...
1. We live on toast. And cereal. And caffeine. And wine. But mainly toast.
2. By the time our book comes out, it feels like a childhood memory. But more distant.
3. Our daily word-count was approximately three thousand words higher before the arrival of Facebook and Twitter.
4. At parties someone will always say, 'So have you written anything I'd have heard of?' Or, 'How are the books going?' Both questions end in awkward silence.
5. If we were number two in the bestseller charts, the only book we would ever be thinking about is the one selling more.
6. We never know if the book we are writing is the right one until we have written it. And even then we are not sure.
7. It is harder to make friends after you become a writer than it was before. But way easier to make enemies.
8. People think you are automatically a bit weird. (Or is that just me?)
9. We need editors 'like a fat kid needs cake' - to quote that sensitive literary soul, 50 Cent.
10. The best day is when we get to see our book cover. Unless we don' t like the book cover in which case it is the worst day.
The rest of them (37 total) are here:
