INFJ Writing Problems
So I have this right now and thought why not write about it. I think a lot of writers get problems writing but, considering in INFJ, I think it would be really hard on us and here are my reasons.
1)Judging/Perfectionists. I think that since we are perfectionist, it’s harder for us to write a book because, for me, I tend to reread my books so many times, trying to edit it, to a point where I think it’s terribly written and I just throw it out the window along with my hopes and dreams.
2)Plotting. So as an INFJ, we like to think of the future. So, with me, if I can’t plot a book (which is 99.9% of the time since I suck at plotting) I will throw the book away, not inspired to write anymore of it.
3)Distractions. For me, this might be another big one. I am always thinking so my own thoughts are a distraction along with something called Netflix. What I find myself doing to help with this is sitting down in a comfortable place, with my laptop as my writing tool, headphone, and turn off all electronics, and focus on writing. When I listen to music, there is always to me a certain artist I will listen to that helps me write instead of distracting me.
4)Impatience. I guess whenever I write I tend to want to rush through the book to finish the book and end up making the book sound terrible during the first draft which links back to Judging.
Thats my top four so far. I hope you all could relate to this. Again this my opinion based on experience. Hope this helps in anyway!
WRITERS BLOCK
Okay, this has nothing really to do with MBTI but, I need creative minds/writers or anyone to help me get off writers block. Thank you so much and I will try also posting more on here, just needed a little break
How to Get Over Writers Block
(I know this isn’t really an INFJ thing like I usually post, but I felt the need to write this to help others with this problem)
So, I have been writing book for forever it seems like, but, as a book writer, I could never finish a book because I was always having writers block, I never understood why I couldn’t finish it…
Until now.
So here are some things you should to to prevent writers block or get over one you are having without completely stopping your book writing process.
Don’t focus on the details. Remeber, this is draft one. You can always edit it later. So I tend to write only the dialogue and add in notes what I can image the character doing or thinking so when I edit it, I can add more detail to that part of the book and describe step by step after draft one.
Write down every idea. So, sometime, I get random ideas on what to write. Like, I’ll be eating breakfast and get an idea to write something that might happen in the book I want to add in the future. So I write it down. And the whole plot build because I write down every single thing I want to happen in the book, it’s the matter of arranging it in order.
No such thing as beginning to end. This is what really got my attention and made me realize my source of writers block is from the feeling I have to write the book from beginning to end when, in reality, that’s not how it works for most people. If I feel I can’t write anymore of one part of my book I am writing, I will skip that part and move on to either the closest part I feel like writing or, I might even write something that happens towards the end, so that way I can always edit it and it will flow smoothly while still keeping that idea I had beforehand.
Who are the characters. This kinda helped me a lot. If you do end up taking a break, this helps remembering which character is who and their personality. For instance, I like to use reference pictures to describe the looks of my character and I write the description of the characters appearance and their personality. I also to a background of their life so I know what they have gone through to be who they are today.
I don’t know if this would help anyone. I know this helped me a lot when writing and I’m getting closer to finishing my first book than I ever did before because of this method I decided to use. I hope this advice could help others with their writings! Let me know if this helped you!

“Then how come since the moment I’ve met you, you’ve kept this hard front about you. Yet…” he tapped his chin in fake-thought, “the moment I come anywhere near you, your palms sweat. Your heart rate rises. Your eyes dart around the room for something, anything to look at that’s not me?”

Achille, Patrocle et ‘Hélène’
Chapitre quatre de mon roman 'Et puis y'a Moi.’ Je suis présentement à la recherche d'un béta lecteur car j'ai une base de l'histoire et plus que quelques chapitres à écrire pour arrivés à la fin du roman, mais j'aimerais d'autre regards pour amélioré mon travail.
Les opens sont les pires. J'haïs les faire. Pour la simple et bonne raison qu'y faut tout préparer, placer, prévoir, mais aussi s'assurer que les clients soient servis correctement. Comme si j'avais juste ça à faire.
Parce que tsé, je peux pas le dire à Réjanne, moi, que j'ai pas juste ça à faire m'assurer que son poulet (qui cuit déjà pendant trois heures en tout pour arriver à la cuisson voulue, hein!) soit 'bien cuit, pas de rose.’ Je veux bin que faut pas qu'il soit rose salmonelle là, mais rose cuit-juste-parfait s'est cuit pareil… Tu mourras pas là! J'ai un fucking resto à faire rouler, je suis pas le cuistot, ni la caissière. Bref. Ma job j'la fais juste parce que j'ai besoin d'l'argent, pas parce que j'aime les gens. Parce que les gens m'énervent beaucoup.
(…)
Gabriel a oublié un ’s’ à discussion et ça me gosse depuis t'à l'heure. J'entends le froissement de vêtements dans l'entrée, mais je me retourne pas tout de suite. Je me redresse un peu, pour faire comme si j'étais tout à fait à l'aise, mais for real, j'ai l'impression que le clavier va faire une réaction à l'eau tellement j'ai chaud.
-Comment ça tu veux pas venir souper? Tu nous aimes pas?!
Même si j'essaye, je suis pas capable d'empêcher mon cou de s'enfoncer entre mes épaules quand j'entends Sam se lamenter comme si c'était la fin du monde. Fronçant le nez à son accusation, je me retourne vers les deux gars… hommes?
-J'veux pas m'imposer…
-Extrait de Et puis y'a Moi
