@that_writer_girl_99 Just to be clear, you don’t have to post your answers to those questions. They’re just meant to provoke thought. 🙂

@that_writer_girl_99 I encourage you to try starting a blog, Elizabeth! I don’t know if I really have any suggestions. Everyone else has covered it pretty well. I do have some questions that might give you something to think about.
1. What would be the purpose of your blog? What do you hope to accomplish with it?
2. What audience do you hope to…[Read more] -

@emma-flournoy I’ve only read two short stories: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, and Rip Van Winkle. I liked Rip Van Winkle the best. It’s a very charming story. Before I read Sleepy Hollow, I was under the impression it was supposed to be scary, but it wasn’t. I recommend them both, though. Irving’s style is fascinating.

@graciegirl I like to sketch a little. I find lots of fun things to draw on Pinterest. I also oil painted once.

@graciegirl I wonder if this forum can handle this many INFPs.
I live on the plains in Northeastern Colorado, about a two hour drive from the mountains. So, where I live, we can get some pretty big drifts, but it’s nothing like the mountains.
That’s so cool that you’re a painter! Do you ever paint scenes from your stories? -

@emma-flournoy Sounds like I’ll be adding that to my list of books to read! I’ve never read any Dickens, so I’ll put that on the list too. I’m definitely interested in the time period and setting. On a different note, do you like any of Washington Irving’s stories? The two of his that I’ve read are set in America, so I thought it was an…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy No worries, I love the MBTI! I’ll never get tired of psychology.
Oh, and INTJs are amazing. -

@that_writer_girl_99 It’s fun to see so many INFPs here even though we’re so rare! I’m fascinated by the INTP type. Watch out. I might want to ask you a lot of questions. 😉
Have you ever read Epic by John Eldredge? It’s not about writing, but it is about stories. And that might only make sense after you read it. -

@kate-flournoy Yay! I’m happy to meet another INFP!
Thanks for the tips! I appreciate any advice I can get. -

Hi, @kina-lamb! I like your name!
I mentioned some of my favorite books in my previous post, but just to save you from reading through all of that, they are: The Accidental Highwayman by Ben Tripp, Dancing on the Head of a Pen by Robert Benson, and Journey to Freedom by Gilbert Morris. You can see ALL of my favorites on Goodreads if you like.…[Read more] -

Hey! Thanks for all the welcomes! I love the enthusiasm here.
So, I’ll try to answer all of your questions in order.
Thanks for the offer, @dragon-snapper. I really appreciate that!
@jane-maree, thanks for the pizza! Do you also like to mash-up a lot of different genres into one story, just for fun?
Hi, @daeus. I’m actually an INFP with an…[Read more] -

Hi! My name is Rebekah, and I am an extreme writing enthusiast, as I’m sure everyone else here is. I have recently realized that I actually see, hear, and think everything in the context of stories. I have a problem.
Anyway, I’m thrilled to be here, and I can’t wait to have wonderful discussions with fellow Christian writers!
I’m passionate…[Read more] -

To answer your question, @kate-flournoy I haven’t done any introductory thing. I don’t know where that is. 🙂

Hey everyone. I’m new here on the forum, and I just have a question.
I’m hoping to enter the six-word story contest that’s going on this week, and I was wondering, does anyone know how many stories I can enter at a time?
Thank you!
