Most of my experience is RP-based, but I've also written a few solo pieces which is something I intend to indulge myself in more and more. It's definitely a different kind of challenge to story replies for writing partners and one I have really enjoyed. I started out on Animal RP sites and fandom sites and have graduated to diverse sites as I've grown, although I still have a soft spot for Warriors Cats games I will admit. As such I'd say I'm able to write a pretty varied and wide range of characters. That said, most of my characters have been ladies in the past and I'm looking to broaden my horizons in regards to that.
Other interests of mine include reading, listening to music and playing video games. I'm often inspired by this when planning new stories.
So what can I offer?[div style="line-height:1.5; paragraph-spacing: 1"]
♢ A mature and experienced writing partner, comfortable with a range of themes and genres.
♢ I am someone who constantly wants to improve my writing and try new things in my posts but...
♢ I have also developed a easily readable writing style - or at least I like to think so.
♢ Friendliness and respect, both of you and your ideas, even if we don't end up writing together.
♢ Patience! I generally don't push my partners for replies unless it's been a few weeks, at which point I'll probably nudge you.
♢ I normally write in the realms of 6 paragraphs, or around 400-700 words.
♢ That said, I myself can probably only post 1-2 times a week depending on how busy I am.
♢ Varying availability during the week due to work
♢ Enthusiasm. I love sharing ideas/headcanons, bouncing plot concepts, talking about character 'what if's and generally talking about my stories. I'm also the kind of person to make Pinterest boards for my stories.[/div]
[/div] [/div] [div class="tabContent 2"] [div style="width:550px; text-align:justify;font-family: calibri; font-size:11pt; line-height:1.50; paragraph-spacing: 1"]What I look for in writing partners:
♢ Polite & Considerate
♢ Mature (18+) but ideally 21+ as I prefer to write with people my age or older.
♢ Patience!! I'm not always the quickest when it comes to replying.
♢ Willing to write a variety of characters
♢ An openness to ideas
♢ Able to write 2 paragraphs minimum consistently.
♢ ... variable post length. I generally don't mirror because I find it unproductive and stressful. I like to write with people of a similar view.
♢ Enthusiastic - the ideal co-writer for me is someone who loves to bounce ideas just as much as I do
♢ Brings something to the table, whether it be plot ideas, character concepts/imagery, inspiration. Even if it's just a theme or two, anything helps to spark a conversation. I work best with those who feel 'collaborative' to write with.
♢ Flexible
♢ Communicative and honest with feedback - how are you enjoying the story? Are you going to be delayed because of RL issues? How would you like to approach the next scene. Talk to me OOC, it's really important to maintaining a story
♢ Please PM me to express interest rather than posting here, thanks!
