No Good, Two-Timing Dame
Well. I guess maybe, /technically/ it's been 8 years I've been writing in the cooperative format. I didn't actually realize that until I typed it just now...wow.
Call me Raine! I'm friendly enough and find myself with way too much time on my hands while my primary writing partner has to work (GAWDDD). I, on the other hand, have internet access and an understanding boss, while I work. So here I am! I write, I draw, I sew, I vidja game, I photograph, I am a creature of many hobbies and love to indulge them all as I can.
I started, like many of us, on GaiaOnline. Back in the beginning I dumped out one liners and one-paragraphs, and now...uh...well, on average I post about 400-600 words (I paragraph weird so that can vary from like 5 to 8 paragraphs for me?). In those more drama-full moments in said stories, I span up to 2k-4k words and enjoy every second of it. To me it ain't just escapism, it's another creative hobby that I enjoy doing for the sake of writing a good story; not just pretending I'm somewhere/someone else.
Not just "what happens" but "how it's written" is important to me. Tell me the room is red, but also tell me how the afternoon sunlight slips in through the cracked curtains and catches it to make it glow like a wreath of flame. I will write /literally/ anything, I HAVE written many different genres, characters, etc., making and honing OCs is a passion. First person (DON'T DOWN IT 'TIL YOU TRY IT Y'ALL), third person (70% of my writing experience), writing male or female or anything in between, fantasy, realism, what have you. I like to do it all.
I do, however, have a question. On Gaia, back in the day, the 'thing' was to write no more than 2-3 paragraphs, 300-400ish words. Maximum.
How do y'all roll with that here? As said that tends to be a minimum for me and...how common is that? Do I have any chance of finding someone who won't just look at me (my icon) like I'm insane for writing first-person crime noir and going on an introspective journey of XXX(X) words?
In any case, you'll find me in the 1x1 search forums for some time until I find someone up to the challenge with me. I'm happy (and in fact love to) chat, about this and that and everything, share hobbies and make friends.
Have a good day, everyone, and hope to see you around!

BUT I'd love to. I can't quite send PMs yet but if you can...shoot me one! Would also love to toss ideas back and forth and get some writing going.
