I am looking for a reliable, hard-working writing partner who can:

-Meet deadlines AND hold me to them.
-Contribute equally to both the creative process AND the labor.
-Provide AND accept honest, constructive feedback.
-Work comfortably within the confines of specific commercial genres like horror, men's adventure, science fiction, YA, etc.
-Work with me to develop projects from beginning to end.
-Keep me focused and motivated if I falter or become distracted.
-Share the credit for, and profits from, our work equally.

I'm an "idea guy" who tends to be very excited about a new project for a few weeks before getting impatient or being distracted by other opportunities/interests. With a partner who can keep the project moving forward and hold me accountable, I will see it through to the end. I need a collaborator who is committed to seeing our work finished and published as soon as possible, and who believes wholeheartedly in their ability to succeed as a writer. My goal is to write for a living, so I need a partner with similar aspirations.

I'm interested in writing short fiction, novels, and screenplays. If you'd like to discuss the possibility of working with me on one or more of these formats, send me a PM today!

Thanks!

Don

You--you're me! All but the part about writing for a living, I only want to supplement my income for now. Otherwise, every word of it could have been written by me. Maybe there should be group therapy for people like us.

Good luck! I hope you enter into a successful partnership.

Thanks, ReneC, for the words of empathy!

I did, in fact, find a writing partner, and we're off and running on what I believe will be a very successful collaboration.
