My WIPs would be doing ok if I could forget most of them for a little while so I could concentrate on one and actually finish it!! 😆

@seekjustice from what I’ve seen, there are some common matches between the two. INTJs, for example, are normally 1s or 5s. With INTPs tending to be 5w4 while INTJs tend to be 5w6 (which is what I am, btw). But these are general guidelines, not a set thing of if you are one MBTI type, you will for sure be a particular Enneagram type.

Hello everyone!
Just a reminder to start things off: I am always taking questions on The Document for You to Ask Me Writing Questions. If there are multiple unanswered questions, I will answer one per week. If there are no questions at all, I will ask you a question – either humorous, ice-breaker, or a more serious writing question. You never…[Read more]

@kelly-lundgren Aw, yeah, that really stinks. I’m glad you were able to write some, though. I’ll be praying you’ll be able to break through this dry spot!
@devastate-lasting Great!

Hi, all! I recently wrote up the book blurb for my superhero novel, Embers. I’m not very good at writing blurbs and I feel like this one is too long. Any and all help will be appreciated!

Last call for editing everyone! I think it could use some more “mystery” elements, but it’s very good.

Hey fellow HFers, I’m feeling chatty so I’m going to start a conversation. No promises on finishing it though, lol. 😉
What has been the worst historical fiction book you’ve ever read and why? Was it the theme, or lack there of? Modern characters stuffed into the past? Too much fiction that it changed the history?
We all know how hard it is to…[Read more]

It’s Okay to Not Just Be a Writer

Cool! I love researching/reading about every era and place, as well. @ashira‘s ahead of me with the Greek/Roman side of writing, though. XD Most of my many WIP’s seem to end up around a historical event or war, whether modern or medieval. 🙂
Hey! Yes, I love the word, too. XD I think @seekjustice…[Read more]

Hey guys!
It’s time to begin writing in earnest! We’ve got our plot in place and at least one writer has volunteered to take up the reins here. We do need more writers (if you already volunteered and I missed your name, I dearly apologize). But we are clear to go, and need to make progress on this puppy so we can unleash our editors.
But first,…[Read more]

We did a lot of brainstorming yesterday! We got more detail down than we normally do for these wars, but I think that is important for a mystery.

We need to start making brainstorming decisions. The deadline for brainstorming is Friday. So, I have made up a victim, setting, half-a-motive, and weapon. Feel free to stop me if you have another idea. We can tweak it as much as needed.

@princess-foo You’re welcome! Glad I could provide a new angle to the discussion. And btw, I personally find the storyline of Character B more sympathetic. I don’t think I can say it is objectively more sympathetic. Reading over what I wrote above, I may have been a little imprecise in some of my wording about Character A’s…[Read more]
