    What type of writing you want a writing partner for: I'm looking for someone who either enjoys:
    poking to actually get stories moving,
    trading reviews with me to encourage me to move along with a story,
    brainstorming with me and spotting holes and errors.
    Preferred genre: Fantasy or romance.
    Type of partner wanted (Co-writer, mentor, someone to brainstorm with, etc): I wouldn't mind co-writers, or mentors, or someone to brainstorm with. I'd really love someone to trade reviews with and co-poke.
    Anything else we need to know?
    I have an idea, but I really haven't done much to it. I don't do much to stories when I'm not talking about them, but I'm typically really shy about talking about my ideas. I will need someone willing to ask and actively ask.

    Editor · Jun 24, 2014
    Name: Little Sister, but you can call me anything you want.
    What type of writing you want a writing partner for: I need a writing partner to write a novel with me. I was thinking that we could both adopt a character and they will be the main characters, and then the rest of the characters, the supporting characters, will be neutral between the both of us.
    Preferred genre: Any type of romance.
    Type of partner wanted: I want a mix between co-writer, mentor, and someone to brainstorm with. Someone who can do that would be perfect.
    Anything else we need to know? I don't think so.

    Name: Kamryn, Kams, Kammies, Kam, etc.

    What type of writing you want a writing partner for: Someone that would like to just write and then if it needs it, turn it into a novel. It just depends how serious it gets.

    Preferred genre: Romance, Fantasy, Sci-fi, Dramatic.

    Type of partner wanted: A Mentor/Co-writer. Someone that will help me grow as a writer.

    Anything else we need to know? Don't think so :)

    Kelpies · Jun 25, 2014
    Name: Kelpies, but you can call me Kelp.
    What type of writing you want a writing partner for: Someone who just enjoys getting ideas bounced off of them, and who doesn't mind writing a different character's point of view! I am also really bad at spelling, so I need someone to poke at that.
    Preferred genre: Fantasy, Sci-Fi, and occaisonal romance, almost always an adventure or quest is involved.
    Type of partner wanted: A co-writer, someone to act as a second conscience to filter out bad ideas.
    Anything else we need to know? I honestly have no idea, is there?

    Name: TriSARAHtops, but I answer to Sarah or Tri

    What type of writing you want a writing partner for: Prose, or more specifically novels.

    Preferred genre: I don't have a particular genre I prefer, but I do tend to write a fair bit of realistic fiction, and I love fantasy.

    Type of partner wanted (Co-writer, mentor, someone to brainstorm with, etc): I'd really like someone who can encourage me to stick with my projects, and hopefully isn't as prone to procrastination as I am. :-)

    Name: Megs~
    What type of writing you want a writing partner for: I want someone who will write regularly and be able to deal with character development. Lots and lots of character development. I also come up with some half baked ideas where I'm like: "Okay! I have no plot and half of a character, but let's do it!"
    Preferred genre: I love it all ^-^ I have less experience in historical fiction and nonfiction, but I write basically anything else and love to try new things.
    Type of partner wanted: I really want a co-writer, but I could do any of that~
    Anything else we need to know? I'm paranoid about not railroading people (even though I'm not normally and I know that), so I need someone who will realize that and tell me to share my ideas, not hide them.

    What type of writing you want a writing partner for: I like writing epic stories, but I can write anything story-oriented. Heck, even just sharing lore between stories would be nice.
    Preferred genre: I lean towards science fiction, action. However, I do dabble in fantasy and a wee bit of romance every once in a while.
    Type of partner wanted: I'd like to share a story with someone. Or two. Or ya know, a whole career. :3
    Anything else we need to know? I suck at writing from a girl's perspective.

    Name: Panther

    What type of writing you want a writing partner for? Eh someone who I could form ideas with, develop stories, think of characters. Also someone I can encourage, and in turn can encourage me, and someone who can both give and take criticism.

    Preferred genre: Fantasy or eh mystery? whatever thrillers would fall under :)

    Type of partner wanted (Co-writer, mentor, someone to brainstorm with, etc): Co-writers or someone to brainstorm with sounds good. I'd prefer a co-writer however.

    Anything else we need to know?
    I have a large fantasy, I'm fairly good at think up plots and characters (well, moderately so), I'm enthusiastic, sometimes a little to much of a critic. It 'd great if I could co-write with someone~

    WaltzingDreams · Dec 19, 2014
    Name: Sybil (tho WaltzingDream's my username, i'd like to be called that instead :3 )
    What type of writing you want a writing partner for: I need someone flexible. Someone who can feel like all the characters, someone who double and triple checks situations in the stories. Someone who is also good at punctuation and grammar (cuz, c'mon we all need that.)
    Preferred genre: Fantasy, Mystery, Romance, Adventure and Fan Fiction.
    Type of partner wanted (Co-writer, mentor, someone to brainstorm with, etc): Co-writer and someone to brainstorm with! :3
    Anything else we need to know? I am a lengthy writer. I would like to clash with someone who's good at the shorts to cut me when I over describe. I also need that person who can cope and create (also indulge me in my fictional fantasies) my complicated plotlines--help me keep track and brainstorm more!
    I am also good at RPing, if that helps :)

    What type of writing you want a writing partner for:
    I just want to write short (or long if we decide on it) stories with someone for fun and as a writing exercise.
    Preferred genre:
    Fantasy, scifi. Basically stuff that doesn't happen in reality.
    Type of partner wanted (Co-writer, mentor, someone to brainstorm with, etc):
    Someone who's fun and open to crazy ideas. And co-writer, definitely. But of course we'll brainstorm ideas first.
    Anything else we need to know?
    I live in Australia, so it's probably best if we have around the same timezones.
