    Ironically INFJs i think make good researchers and mystery writers. Or something related to a niche or esoteric subject that have depth or digging involved. INFJs like to dig for information more than analyzing it because the Ni function automatically does the analyzing for them via feelings - but that digging seems to be perpetuated by an inner desire for that specific knowledge. Sometimes the digging for information is self serving; where the infj is trying to learn about the self via external digging. As long as the infj is digging for personal understanding than creative aspects of writing may not manifest - UNLESS they make the choice to channel that desire for information and knowledge into something like creative writing. Poetry and short stories also appeal to infjs a lot. I think maturity can play a big role; once an infj has gathered enough for them self to feel content as far as knowledge and experience then that can translate into creative outlets. But almost the first thirty years or so for most infjs is about gathering information for the purpose of self understanding.

    faith is a very personal thing to me which I've struggled with so I don't share or write about it much.

    I think you are an artistic INFJ :) - in some cases depending on your mood you may test as INFP - but that's very common for most of us.

    I think it's pretty, too. Normally I get tired of names after having had them for a while, but I still enjoy this one.

    I love the quotation in your about me section. It shines light on a very familiar feeling.

    It's really wonderful, isn't it? I feel like we're lucky not to have evolved on some planet that's just a huge desert or something like that.

    Hello!

    I'm sorry for the late response here, I'm still finding my way around the form and I couldn't find this message or remember who had asked it. So I'm glad I have found it again :)

    How is it going?

    I think you are definitely on the right track and I wish you the very best of luck with it :)

    1 - I was always a method actor. I studied Stanislavsky and I even use the emotional memory methods in my writing now. It was difficult to learn but it really helped me, I could never find a character without it. I actually use the MBTI personality tests for developing characters too, answering the questions as I imagine they would. The description you get at the end reallyhelps me to think how they think and it makes them become more real and it is at that point I begin to enjoy them - whether writing them or acting them. I have always grown to love my characters.

    2 - I'm not sure on this one really, I never really thought about it. I suppose in the heat of the moment I was always really aware of not forgetting the script and being aware of everyone else. And because I was wrapped up in my character I wasn't me, I was thinking like them.

    3 - How is the piece going? It is hard to play someone who is totally opposite to you. I used to do a lot of people watching and I would even stand in front of the mirror to practise. It was cringeworthy! And hard to do at first but eventually I got the hang of it.

    Overall I think it is character development you need. Do you go to workshops and things where you have to do improvisation? That might help?

    Would love to hear how its going! :)

    Bear McCreary is phenomenal. I really need to get that entire series' score. The use of, rise and fall, like you said, and ethnic instruments in different ways is exceptional.
