What's the convention for writing the direction of the force field lines?
Is always in relation to positive charge?
That is, You'd put the field lines pushing inwards for a negative charge because: a positive charge would be attracted to the negative charge?

@ertreri you always draw the field lines from a small positive test charge's point of view, out of positive into negative
