@Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise oh my word!!! That’s… wow. That’s morbid. 😛

Wow, you guys… I love this forum.
@Dragon-Snapper take the test. Here it is. It’s fascinating. If I had to guess, I’d put you down as either ENFJ or ENTJ. @Corissa-Maiden-of-Praise is an ENTJ, and @Daeus and @Bluejay are ENFJs, so either way you’re in good company. 😉 And I know EXACTLY what you mean about mimicking character expressions— I’ve…[Read more]

No, I don’t @kate-flournoy, and I’m jealous of you. Well, sometimes I slip into the character’s mind or put myself in their place to figure out what they would do. But generally I am very much the one writing. Well, I take that back; it depends on the character. I connect more closely with some and get in their heads better than with others.…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper cuz I can too. *wiggles eyebrows* Fun, isn’t it?

Between INFP and INTJ? Ooh boy… simplified? *wails* @HOPE! HELP ME!!! Okay, okay… *decides to dump a bunch of type-summary on you rather than try and be simplified about an actual explanation* INTJs are: architects, masterminds, imaginative strategists, and the most…[Read more]

I’m an INFP, by the way, for those of you who didn’t know. The difference between an NF writer and an NT writer is that NTs are great with ideas, and NFs are great with people. So yes, NTs are more plot focused, and NFs are more character focused. Great observation, Jess.
INTJs have emotions, but it’s not their primary function, whereas with an…[Read more]

Wow guys, what a discussion going on here. 😀 I shall add my two cent’s worth in a moment, but first, there is a very important matter I must attend to. *pushes spectacles severely up bridge of nose*
@Dragon-Snapper. Can you or can you not breathe like Gollum does.

Now that that’s out of the way… have any of you guys noticed that we’re all…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper Great! And thanks. I only have 500 words left!

@dragon-snapper I can get 500 words done in 20-30 minutes if I focus. Like I currently am not doing. But I’m 500 more along, hence this quick ‘break’. Now, back to work.

@dragon-snapper Yep, still here. 1000 words down, 2000 to go. 🙂

@overcomer @aella @dragon-snapper @daeus I’m going to be writing for the next few hours, trying to get 3000 words in, if anyone wants to join in.

@Jess Exactly! I’m INTJ too. 😉 But while I’m not heartless, I take a certain amount of gleeful pleasure out of being viewed as heartless, with ice in my blood, etc. Don’t as us, ahem, me why. Yes, I talk to myself in my mind. First person, second person, even third person… *glances to either side warily* Wes not completely insane, preciouses? Are wes?

Ooh, scifi… we can go a lot of different places, then. *grins*
M’kay… first idea. They could invent this virus that spreads by contact of skin to skin— it just has to touch you and then the spores go to work, and anyone else you touch catches the same virus. It’s a powder or something, and even one grain of it transfers the disease to the…[Read more]

Oh wow, what a topic @Jess. XD

Okay. It really depends on the genre. Tell me the genre, and I’ll see what horrible outlandish things I can think of. 😛

@Daeus opera? Wow… never really considered that as a written thing, but now that you mention it, they are stories, aren’t they? 😛
Music isn’t really all that difficult— if you can read it and have the basic foundation (which learning piano is the best way to build, IMO) it’s fairly easy. Assuming, of course, you have the head for it. 😛 I…[Read more]

@His-Instrument YES!!! Les Miserables! My favorite book ever! I love that one. And you haven’t even got to the good part yet. *wiggles eyebrows*

And the Chronicles of Narnia— yes. I reread them recently, and was actually stunned how deep they are. I’d only had them read to me before, when I was seven or eight, and so much of the allegory I…[Read more]

@his-instrument I’ve not read Les Miserables, but my sister has.

I loved The Princess and the Goblin and The Princess and Curdie. Then it came to the end and I was like wait…what?!?!?

I ended up not reading The Mark of the Lion trilogy for that very reason. The violence I didn’t mind, but Mom didn’t care for the depth of the romance and…[Read more]

@his-instrument Go girl!!! I did something like that once (10,000 in two days) and it’s not easy. 😀 I’m currently only at 6000 words. Is your story flowing well then, or are you just pounding it out?

@Emma-Flournoy nah. I’d rather throw in my lot with the rebels, thanks.

@Brandon-Miller 😀

@Christi-Eaton @Emma-Flournoy YOU GUYS ARE HAVING A LES MIS PARTY WITHOUT ME???? *sniff* I’m so betrayed.
*wanders off singing ‘On my own…’*
