Can the enneagram make you a better writer?
You’ve heard all the hype about enneagram types. Maybe you know yours—maybe you don’t.
But do you know how it affects your writing career?
Are you aware of how the strengths and weaknesses
your personality brings to the keyboard can help or hinder your work?
As we learn the strengths and weaknesses that tend to accompany our number, we can use them to improve so many aspects of our writing life. Our goals, priorities, anxieties, techniques—all are affected by the core needs of our personality.
Would you like to learn to harness those strengths and weaknesses for a more powerful voice and more effective habits?
We’ll dive into it in this interactive video series.
Trust me—I’m a 5. I’ve done the research.

Why trust me?As an enneagram 5, I can get caught up in my head. I also worry a LOT that all the opportunities will be gone before I get a chance.
Since learning more about how my type affects my career, I’ve learned to reach out to others who can complement my strengths and weaknesses. I’ve discovered that the more I lift up other writers, the more opportunity there is! I know now how to get out of my own head space and find others who will help me love writing again when I get too narrowly focused on ALL the research and ALL the scarcity. |

Why should I pay attention to the other types? Can’t I just get the part of the course that relates to my number?
- Because you’re going to have a mix of types within yourself (wings) as well as types you move toward in strength and weakness. You need to know about those!
- Because you’re going to work with people who are the other types (agent, collaborator, editor, illustrator, etc)
- Because you might create characters that aren’t just like you
- Because people on social media will need your care if you want to build an engaged following, not just a brand
- Because you’ll know with whom to form alliances to get where you want to go, to have well rounded writing groups, to have people in your corner with mutual support
