I was reading an obituary to J.D. Salinger today which said he was a 'literary lion.'

Now that got me thinking. What animal would reflect my writing abilities if I was to suddenly expire and have an obituary written about me?

There are endless possibilities. A literary elephant. No, hasn't got a ring to it. A literary giraffe perhaps because I like writing long stories. Nope!

I had to be honest I would be called a literary puppy because I am just learning the trade and always appear to be chasing my literary 'tale' around in circles.

What would you be?

I'll be a literary hamster then.

Always running 'round in my wheel. A happy wheel, mind you. :D

I'm a literary shoggoth, sprouting protoplasmic MSS in all directions.

I am a literary unicorn. At first glance you think I'm a plain ol' horse, but there's more than you realize.

:D

I'm a literary bear. I like spending winter curled up inside, pounding out a story. Then in the warmer months I rouse, poke my head outside, and eat a lot of salmon.

Cheering you all on!
I'm a cat. Some people love me, some people really really don't. I'll be lazy... unless something really catches my interest, of course. Like food. Or that catnip toy over there. <pounce>

A sarcastic trilby-wearing raven who walks with a slight limp on its left leg when it's cold.

I would be a literary ass, outweighed by rejection.
