Personality Test for Writers

[Paul Whybrow]

I stumbled upon a test to assess what sort of personality you have as a writer.

What Type of Writer Are You?

The first question is what sort of writer do you think you are? I guessed Savvy Writer, but I was wrong, for apparently I'm an Eternal Writer:

Of all the writers, you have the strongest most comprehensive grasp of the writing craft. Consequently, others don't appreciate how hard you work at it. You make it look easy!

I don't know about that...most of the time I feel like this:

What sort of writer are you?

 

[Barbara]

Well, that cat sums me up. Although I'd be fluffy.

But according to the test, I'm an Eternal Writer. I guess that means I won't ever stop...

 

[georginaK]

I got inspired writer—seems feasible

 

[Robert M Derry]

It's an interesting test with enough questions to produce what feels like a sensible result.

I'm Hesitant Writer apparently, which is what I thought I was.

 

[Nikky Lee]

Neat find. Turns out I am a logical writer. I wasn't expecting that, but I guess it makes sense:

"Logical thinking comes naturally to you, so when others don't quite follow your logic, it's befuddling."

Me: Ohhhhhh



Edit: Turns out I misread a few questions – the second time round I got Eternal Writer. Maybe I'm a mix of both. * Shrugs *

 

[RK Wallis]

Fun test, I'm an Eternal Writer too

 

[Eva Ulian]

30 odd questions to answer... but I enjoyed it. Thank you for posting Paul.I thought I was a closet writer instead they said I was this I am the Inspired Writer - What are you?

 

[Carol Rose]

According to the test I'm a logical writer, but I didn't see myself as that. Fun test, though. Makes you think about how you approach aspects of your writing.

 

[E G Logan]

Ahh. Literate Writer.

Example: Peter Mayle.

Mmm. Maybe not.

 

[Susan]

I got eternal writer. Hopefully not eternally unpublished.

 

[Rachel Caldecott]

I got eternal too. Ditto. Hopefully not eternally unpublished except for my little history book.

 

[Geoff]

Eternal Writer, allegedly. What are the chances that the cat above gets published?

 

[Paul Whybrow]

Eternal Writer, allegedly. What are the chances that the cat above gets published?

Quite possible, Geoff. I saw a volume in the Cat Detective Cozy Mysteries series in my local library, which made me groan aloud!

 

[Lex Black]

I just took this personality test. I failed it.

 

[LeahH]

Apparently I'm an Eternal Writer.

 

[Steve C]

It says I am an alcoholic!

PS Can I borrow your cat? The book is a bit slow right now.
PPS I was lying. It says I am a closet writer whose been writing all his life which is rubbish, I started less than a year ago.

 

[E G Logan]

Well, hey! Another Eternal!
Maybe we should form a club... but wait
