Hi Guys,
I'm looking for an writing buddy to share parts of my writer's journey with! To help each other out with some constructive feedback on our manuscript, characters, plot, etc. Besides it's a lot more fun to have someone you can share, help and go-to while you sit and write on your own manuscript, right?

I'm almost done with my second draft of my Urban Fantasy novel - so exciting and terrifying at the same time! You don't have to be writing in the same genre tho :) But lets exchange some chapters and see if we are on the same page :)

Who am I? I'm a student (MSc in International Development Studies and Communication) and just applied for a Editing certificate from the University of Chicago - Yai!
oh and I live in Copenhagen, play the Cello and belong to the Slytherin House - just saying ;)



Let me know if your interested :)

Kind regards,
Niels van Deurs

I'm willing. I'm from Kiel, not terribly far from you. I also speak some Danish. I write videogame stuff, my script basically looks like a film script. So if you want novel writers, that's not me. PM if interested.

Genre? Current WIP? Sample Chapter? You're not giving people a lot to work with here.

That sounds so cool! and the danish part would have been awesome! But yeah I should have been more specific - I'm writing a urban fantasy novel and don't have that much experience with manuscript for video-games, so I don't think I would be the right match for you. But good luck with your writing and thank you so much for your interest :)

Best regards,
Niels

I'm just getting started on my writing journey, but I might be able to check out your manuscript if you pinky swear to return the favor when I finally get my act together and finish the first draft of my Sci-Fi novel. ;)
I live in Odense, Denmark; work in Copenhagen; and I taught English Written Communication at Syddansk Universitet before moving on to my current position as a videogame producer. I agree, this journey would be much more fun if I had someone to bounce ideas off of, and I'd be thrilled to hear from you. :)
