In the past, I know that I always felt most inspired to write when I was exchanging pages with someone else. While my life has changed and it is now very unlikely that we will be sending one another work on Skype while the other is still writing, I think this will still be motivating. It helps that "I'm writing this for _________" motivates in different ways than "I need to make word count".

What exactly AM I looking for? Basically, I send you 1000-2000 words on Tuesday. You respond with Pros, Cons, and how you feel as a reader as well as suggestions as a writer. Line-by-line critique not necessary but it would not go unappreciated either. Your response also includes your own 1000-2000 words. If I've received it by Sunday, I respond with my own comments and new work, repeat every Tuesday and Sunday. It is very likely that I may send work throughout the week for differing pieces as I find myself able to work on multiple projects much more easily than a single project. Still, I figure that this set-up is likely to benefit someone.

I should mention that if you prefer to share only non-fiction (reviews, analyses, continuity discussions about Sci-Fi/Fantasy materials) or only fiction, please let me know.
