You know you're a fantasy writer when...

...you refer to Middle Earth like a real country
... you kill a character and your friends get mad at you
...you kill characters because they did something you didn't like. Or because they mad a dumb decision on their own.
...you get names by scrambling/taking pieces of real words
...you wrote and recited, as a school project, a poem in your own language
...you wish you could telepathically communicate over long distances with your friends
...you and your best friend claim to have developed mutual telepathy. And your parents are starting to wonder...
...you create a creature that's more or less a dragon, yet still find ways to assure your readers it's not one
...you gave up trying to think up plotlines in bed because you couldn't fall asleep
...you act out battle/emotional scenes from your story in order to write them perfectly
...you always sit facing the window when you ride in the car so you can act out said scenes while listening to your iPod.
...you scare yourself with a creature you invented
...you walk outside at night to take the trash out and wonder if you'll be spirited away by a villain from another world who's secretly trying to kill you
...you realize that virtually every story you write revolves around some sort of prophecy
...you wonder if your best friend is really your long lost sibling/twin
