a Fiction MENTOR and CO-WRITER NEEDED.
A FICTION MENTOR and CO-WRITER NEEDED
Sorry for the confusion. I edited this post to add this new info, because the other info I think was not clear.
Basically I dream alot of thriller and suspense stories, some very weird, actually like their movies.
I have been in the writing world for fifteen years at the most I can count writing regularly, published several times before and have recieved three writing scholarships (two paid for some of my college education and I attended a creative arts school. I have had poetry, including a piece of prose, fiction, including a play, published in small press. I won't post my entire biography because I learned to never tell too much about yourself early on first meet, also people will mistakenly take it as a sign of arrogance even if you are just trying let them know your writing history, so they can have a better understanding of your discipline as a writer. I'm not an expert and I believe that there is always more to learn about writing. I prefer to work 1 on 1 with a critiquer and is rather open for critique, though I may not always take every critique suggestion. I have had critique by some of the most "telling it straight, brutally honest with their insight" critiquers I could meet on the web. We have had our disagreement but they have helped me greatly and we are friends today. lol.
Although writing poetry and prose poems is my main thing, I can write in other genres. Although I'm primarily a solo writer, I thought I'd try to write with other writers and have a mentor for myself. I'm pretty much a down to earth, discipline, creative and fun writer. I'm selfish about my writing and put nothing before it accept my daughter.
What I'm looking for, is below:
1. I want someone to write with me on 2 of my stories (that are not completed and of course the rights are shared).
2. A mentor for two other stories, meaning giving feedback, critique, review and advise and suggested idea (voluntarily of course)
A mentor can also suggest idea but usually it is through critique.
Co-writers, actually decided together what stay and goes and together they create the literary art. Rights are shared as well.
I have had two people who I consider who were mentors in my poetry in the past.
The characteristic of a genius is defined by their ability to start their own fire--Author Unknown
Thanks in advance!
