Can't find the list

I went on the website www.writersworkshop.co.uk yesterday but couldn't find the list so I'm going to reproduce it in the blog over the next few days.

Before that I have two thing to report.

1)I didn't hear from Allen & Unwin on their Friday Pitch, another rejection to add to the pile

2)I have moved the memoir as far as Germany

Here are the first few items of the list, You know you're a writer when...

1. You've run out of file colours to keep all the hand-written pages of different works

2. Your default template setting is double-spaced Times Roman 12pt [so true!]

3. Whilst reading another writer's work you find yourself thinking, 'Too much tell, not enough show' [Also true]

4. Credit companies reject you purely on the grounds that you don't have a fixed annual salary. [haven't and probably will not experience that one. I daren't even apply for a new credit card!]

Only eighteen more points to come!
