You Should Be a Film Writer |
![]() You don’t just create compelling stories, you see them as clearly as a movie in your mind. You have a knack for details and dialogue. You can really make a character come to life. Chances are, you enjoy creating all types of stories. The joy is in the storytelling. And nothing would please you more than millions of people seeing your story on the big screen! |
What Type of Writer Should You Be?
The quiz itself was rather shallow and disappointing. When I write, the process is an attempt to describe the scene I see in my head, and I’ve been told my writing is cinematic. I’ve fantasized about one of my stories being made into a movie, but I definitely think of myself as a novelist and not a scriptwriter.

Heh, You, me, and Marcy “should” all be film writers.
Means we’re writing in the wrong field, or the survey needs to be updated with Fantasy writer.
I tried a bunch of combinations but could only get Film, Sci Fi, and Poet as options.

Yeah, it’s not one of the better “tests” I’ve seen.

Yeah, I got Film Writer as well, and probably for much the same reasons you did.
