Nearly two years ago, I wrote a post called A Writer’s Life as told by Joey Tribbiani from the hit TV show Friends. About nine months later, I did another one called A Writer’s Life as told by Ross Geller, and a few months after that, I did A Writer’s Life as told by Chandler Bing. They were so much fun to put together, that of course, I couldn’t let the boys have all the fun. So I asked and you answered.
Which Friend should I do next? Well, the votes are in and Phoebe Buffay was the winner, so . . .
When you think of an amazing plot twist . . .
When you’re trying to come up with a good sex scene . . .
When you’re trying to get past your writer’s block . . .
And then when your author friends brag about good writing days while you have writer’s block . . .
When your character does something you didn’t plan on . . . and it’s not good . . .
When someone asks you if your novel is done and it’s not . . .
When you first open up the notes from your editor . . .
And you read through them . . .
Only to discover that your editor wants you to make changes that cause massive rewrites . . .
When someone asks you how your edits are going . . .
When you finally finish those massive rewrites . . . and go out to celebrate drinking . . .
And dancing . . .
When you get a rejection letter from a publisher or agent . . .
And they say that they can’t market or sell your novel . . .
When someone asks you what you’re going to do next . . .
But in the end, you decide all you can do is keep moving forward . . .
Brilliant 😀 This is so funny, and so true 🙂 I really enjoyed reading it 😀
Thank you! I’ve loved doing all of them. I think Joey and Chandler were my favorite. We shall see when I can come up with Monica and Rachel. I just have to have the full set. LOL
They are all great because each of them respond in different ways, just like we all do depending on the situation 🙂
Exactly. 🙂
So many LOLs! She’s my fav Friends character
I really need to do a marathon with that show. LOL
This is spot on! Definitely gave me a good laugh this morning.
Haha. Phoebe is classic. She reminds me of my bff. Good fun. 😀
Yes, she is. I really miss that show. Although, I have the whole series on DVD.
LOL!! LOVE this! She was always my favorite on Friends. 🙂
Reblogged this on A Novel Journey and commented:
This was too funny–and awesome–not to share. Thank you Angela! 🙂
I wish there was Love button for this, I am a huge, huge FRIENDS fan !!! Thoroughly enjoyed it. 🙂
In case you plan on writing something similar with the next character, please take up Rachel, she has the best NOOOOOOO faces!!!
I figure I’ve done four of them, I might as well finish the set. Lol. Rachel and Monica will come in the next several weeks. Thank you! 🙂
