Writers - always good for a laugh

I'm really stuck on what to write - about anything -  so yes, I'm resorting to writer jokes

 
Question: Why did the writer cross the road?


Answers:

A. To see what that person over there was doing.

B. Because there's this bit in my novel where the mc crosses the road, and I really wanted to get a feel for what that would be like for her.

C. To get a fresh perspective. There's nothing like a fresh perspective to help you see what is working or not in one's trip to the shops.

D. Did I cross the road? Oh yes - you're quite right, I did. The POV has changed from left to right side - and I didn't even notice! Thanks for pointing it out.


(Note: more than one answer may be true.)

  2. I actually did use excuse B once. In my defence, I was ten or eleven at the time :)

  3. Old Kitty - g. she didn't. she woke up and it was all a dream.

    hampshireflyer - that shows a remarkable desire for authenticity for a ten or eleven year old!
