It stands for the One Year Adventure Novel @cloudy

Okay, I’m resurrecting this topic because I’ve been looking into it for next year. I know there are a few more people on the forum now who are/have taken the OYAN course, so I was wondering what opinions were… My concern is 1. Is it for beginning writers (as in never written a novel before) and not really aimed at people who write regularly?…[Read more]

@Daeus though I have noticed that when INFJs go into fanatic mode like that they get a little hardened. 😛

@Dragon-Snapper I rebel. 😀 Anna may be jumpy but to me that’s part of the reason I liked her. Just sayin’.

@GracieGirl ha! I need one of those lists… *starts to scribble it down**realizes they’re all villains* Um… never mind. XD

@Daeus yes! Who would have thought it? *grins*

@Daeus I can think of several backstories that could have happened to him and I do NOT want to hear about them… XD

It is amazing though. Just goes to show how crucial it is to understand the functions themselves and not the stereotypes.

@Daeus OH— my goodness. Yes. You’re right. *stares at screen**nervous smile**huddles deeper into blankets and cuddles stuffed leopard* Yeah. He is.
Please. Never become an apothecary. 😛

@GracieGirl he seems pretty serious. XD I hadn’t seen it until about a month ago. I’m not a big Disney person, quite honestly. Just never got into it. And Frozen definitely has it’s problems… like Elsa. For a main character, she had some major characterization issues, and… actually no. I’m not going to go that way. WHOEVER WANTS TO WATCH IT,…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper *opens mouth wide**takes deep breath* ‘LET IT GO!’
*dissolves into a fit of laughter* I’ll say one thing for that song— it’s certainly fun to sing. All those high notes and long holds… *shivers of delight*
And come on. Really. It wasn’t as bad as people make out. I enjoyed it. I mean, for what it WAS— it’s not like high…[Read more]

@Daeus it wasn’t THAT bad… XD

Yeah, what’s up with that? Either we’re prancing through a field of flowers, or wreaking havoc throughout the universe!

@graciegirl YES. It’s crazy. :’D Literally the only INFP heroes/heroines I’ve been able to find are Frodo Baggins, Arwen Undomiel, Anne of Green Gables, and one or two others I can’t remember. Whereas the villains… I can…[Read more]

@GracieGirl ha! 😀 I haven’t read it either. INFP villains do seem to be remarkably prevalent though. It’s scary actually, but since I’ve started looking I’ve found more INFP villains than I have heroes. ;P

@GracieGirl oooh, actually you know what? You’re right. Good example.

@Dragon-Snapper *chokes* I am mortally afeared. XD

@Daeus wellll… I have an ENFJ anti-hero but he’s not written yet, so… XD
*ahem*
Yes. Let me think.
Hmmmm… *scratches head* You guys aren’t natural villain material.:P The only one I can think of straight off the top of my head is Mr. Waternoose, from Monsters Inc, and then it’s close between ENFJ and ENTJ.
Also… hm. *dredges through the…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper it doesn’t really matter when you have beta-readers actually. I think it is pretty standard procedure to wait until you’re ‘done’, but in my case the story was so ridiculously long I’ve been sending it out in sections to the first round, hammering the second draft into shape as I go. Once I finish up with that I’ll run through it…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper welllll… generally I’d say if you’re connecting with one character better than the other and giving them more screen time etc., switch MCs because you’ve probably got them mixed up, but it looks like you already tried that.
So… the problem may not be your attachment to SACK, but your lack of attachment to the quiet one.…[Read more]
