Real 80s Writer

A graffiti writer that painted a little bit for a couple of years in the late 1980s. Returned to the scene to show everyone who’s boss during a midlife crisis demanding the respect of a graffiti king. Will use old school rules when it suits him. Hates street art. Gets pleasure from painting violent and abusive threats in childrens’ play parks. Internet troll and alcohol fuelled keyboard warrior. Must have an Instagram account to gain validation from strangers. Will not write within his postcode. Will put up the names of his pets to make it look like he has an army.

Person 1: Someone painted over that lovely mural at the park with some hideous unreadable bubble letters.
Person 2: Yeah, it must have been a ‘Real 80s Writer’!

Reverse Writer's-Block

As the name implies, this is the opposite of Writer's Block. This means that the writer, instead of blanking, gets an overflow of ideas- the downside is that these ideas will usually not be related to each other. For instance, an author may be trying to write a biography and, due to Reverse Writer's Block, get ideas for the biography, ideas for a story about god-knows-what, lines for a poem, characters for a script, and so on.

This can be a good thing in that, due to the massive writing one does because of this, improvement can be accomplished. They can exercise grammar, word usage, and creativity.

There is no cure, I'm afraid.

Dr. Morrow attempted to begin writing her medical essay, but due to reverse Writer's-Block she could only think to write of a rich leprechaun and following it up on an expository piece discussing computers.

Well, I'm a writer.

Said ruefully when no one gets the joke.

No one understands that Shakespeare is just Edwardian Cinemax? Well, I'm a writer.

A Writer’s Religious Partiality

A writer’s religious partiality becomes clear when he chooses the names of the characters for most of his stories, novels etc. from his own religion.

A: I have tried to invent a new term called 'a writer’s religious partiality'. When a Muslim writer sits at the desk to write a story, then he thinks about Muslim names for the characters. Similarly, when a Hindu writer decides to write a story, Hindu names appear before his mind; a Christian writer chooses Christian names for his novels, dramas etc. But, sometimes a Muslim, Hindu and Christian writers also choose the characters' names from other religions. However, it happens 'sometimes'. In most of the cases, a writer's religious partiality becomes clear. I must say that this kind of partiality is normal and accepted by everyone. There's nothing wrong in it because a writer’s religious faith, his upbringing, his own community etc. influence him to choose names from his own religion.
B: Yes, your observation is correct.

Urban dictionary writer

A pissed-off 40 years old loser that writes bad definitions about things nobody cares in Urban Dictionary. They criticize people for their own lack of better skills, other than being spiteful and self-centered.

Second and third definitions of Britney Spears.

The urban dictionary writer may also be the text editor the writers use, but that's a different story.
