1. The Turtle
The easiest way to describe you is:
SLOW. You are a strict adherer to the
saying “slow and steady wins the
race”. You don’t write quantity, you
write quality. And it definitely shows
(you little genius). Your books are
probably long and detailed because
you won’t rush this baby.
2. The Shiny Idea Chaser
You could fill an entire ROOM with the
story ideas you have. You get
inspiration from anything! (The
shower is notoriously inspiring…
where is your waterproof notebook??)
You have pinterest boards and word
documents and sticky-notes and
notebooks and notes on your phone
and…and…okay. You just have a lot of
(awesome) ideas. You just
need time to write them all!
3. The Intense Plotter
You have got this sorted. There’s
nothing like a 10,000-word outline
and a 6-book plan, right?! You know
what’s going to happen way before it
happens. Sometimes people
accuse you of not being spontaneous,
but pfft to them. Your books are
complex, tight, and delicious.
4. The Need for Speeder
You write fast. Super fast. 10,000-
words a day? Pfft. You’ve done it
copiously. You write fast and furious
and, coincidentally, you don’t write a
lot. Your creative well gets depleted
fast and you take long breaks to
search for inspiration.
5. The NaNoWriMoer
You function best on a deadline and
with a large cheering-squad. NaNo hits
off 3x a year and you’re there for each
one. You struggle and revel in the
deadline simultaneously. WORD WARS?
You’ve got a battle axe.
6. The One-Hit-Wonder
So there was this one time you wrote
a book. Aaaand, that was about it.
You’re constantly reworking said book.
(It’s going to be amazing one day but
just…not…quite…yet.) You either would
like to write more (if you had the time)
or you’ve got a been-there-done-that
philosophy and you’re off snorkelling
the Mariana Trench.
7. The Project
Procrastinator
You really suck at the whole “apply
seat of pants to chair and WRITE”. But
what about pinterest? Twitter? Better
do your emails? And you’ve got like
24020 other things to do as well BUT
YOU DO LIKE TO WRITE! You just…um…
get distracted. Doing write-every-day
challenges really motivates you. But,
let’s face it, you do more fangirling
(dream cast? mini-movie trailers?
interviews? drawings?) over your
characters than actually writing about
them.
8. The Literary Axe-
Murderer
Killing one character is cute. You kill
HUNDREDS. If someone gets out of
your book alive they’re seriously lucky
(and probably suffering PTSD from
your abuse).
Your spare nothing. Toughness is life.
Okay, so maybe you’re a little crazy, but
you know how to break a reader’s
feels.
9. The Multi-Tasker
That writer’s working on one project?
Aww, so adorable. You handle 6+ at
one time. Plus you’re doing edits on a
few manuscripts, beta-ing for a friend,
casually writing a dozen novels, and,
oh, plotting 2x dozen more. You’re like
an octopus.
10. The Secretest
Shhhh! All your projects are SECRET.
Most people don’t even know you
write. It’s not that you’re embarrassed,
per se, it’s just that writing is
incredibly personal to you and you
don’t want to show it off until it’s as
good as it can be. You would probably
die if someone read your unedited
work. Well. Scrap that. You’d die if
someone read ANY of your work. But
you have the world oh-so-curious.
