		<description>The cold in Washington was actually getting to me. For over 30 years, August has been sunny and hot. To have a high of 65F and complete cloud cover felt very wrong. And as lovely as it is up there, I&#039;ll take over summers over 100F compared to 6 months of winter any day.</description>

		<description>Hi Milt,

Thanks for the comment.  There will be more to this site once I get caught up. I was at a professional novel writing workshop put on by David Farland. Fabulous workshop, but I was also basically offline for over a week and am still catching up. I would love to hear how the IO is working out for you.

Take care,
 Heidi</description>

		<description>Hey Russ,

I think personality systems are interesting, and great guides for fleshing out characters in a novel. 

I googled a few color personality tests and liked this one: http://www.testcolor.com/personalitytest/personalitytest.php 

It&#039;s free, doesn&#039;t require an email address, and provides a lot of detail on the final page. It didn&#039;t specifically match me up with a single color, but my top three characteristics were: Intellectual, Well-thought, and Imaginative.  So you were right about the attention to detail, and since they didn&#039;t have Creative as a characteristic, I&#039;ll go with Imaginative. 

Thanks for the comment,
 Heidi</description>

I&#039;m going to challenge you here on your claim to &#039;creativity&#039;.  Instead, I would suggest that, like me, you are a &#039;Green&#039; personality type.  One of the characteristics is &#039;attention to detail&#039;.

My wife is very skilled in many areas of personality dynamics.  She is the one who introduced me to &#039;True Colors&#039; and &#039;Personality Dimensions&#039; (the Canadian counterpart to True Colors).  

While you may not like to compartmentalize people (eg. zodiac signs, etc) I think you&#039;ll discover as I did that True Colors is uncannily accurate.  If you aren&#039;t familiar with this form of personality typing, here is a small sample to whet your appetite.  It&#039;s fascinating stuff.
