Enneagram Fiction in the Works!
Being a huge Enneagram fan and an author who imagines unique worlds was the perfect combination to propel me into this idea until I was neck-deep, an idea that has captivated me ever since it was born in my crazy mind.
What if the world was only made up of one personality type?
Makes you wonder, right? If you know about the Enneagram, you know that in this construct, there are 9 distinct personality types everyone fits into. Although there are several variants involved that can make people of the same type seem very different, most people of a certain personality type will have many of the same traits and motivations.
So what would happen in this fictitious world? Would it depend on the personality type? Or would it be doomed no matter what?
In my new book series I’m working on, I promote the idea that our diverse personalities are not only necessary for us to thrive, but also what make society beautiful. Every personality type has flaws, true, but every type also has amazing strengths that are needed and that can be helpful to other types. We need each other. We are better together. That is the biggest theme in this book.
The other main theme is similar – we need to discover who we are to become better people, as well as what our strengths and talents and passions are so that we can use them to make our world better. If all people knew who they were and could find their passion and follow it, not only would they be happier, but also the world would be so much better for it.
Btw, if you can’t tell…I’m a type 1, wing 9…the Reformer and the Idealist. 😉
For now, get ready and excited if you love the Enneagram. A fiction book is coming soon! (Be sure to click Follow to stay informed on the progress of this project!)
