Hey, all.
I'm a bit ashamed to say I've never really finished anything I've written. I got my start in writing from interactive mediums like roleplay, and I think that made me used to only writing half of a story, then petering out when my partners lost interest in the plot. I'm not unhappy that I've had this experience, as my writing would be much worse without it, but it's set me up for some terrible writing habits. I've only really written when I feel inspired, and I typically feel the most inspired to write fanfiction, instead of focusing on my own ideas.
No more. Damnit, I want to finish one novel in this lifetime. And since it appears I lack the ability to kick my own ass (for now), I'd love a little assistance in the form of a writing buddy. I know it's the writer's duty to force themselves to write, not anyone else's. I just need some training wheels on my willpower before I can do that successfully.
Obviously, I'm not looking for someone to crack the whip at me from afar, as that would be unfair to them and rather boring. I'd just like someone to hold me accountable for getting at least a little writing done everyday. I'd be happy to do the same for them, and would enjoy reading anything they'd want to share with me. My main genres are YA science fiction and fantasy of all varieties, though I'm also open to a buddy who writes adult instead. I am a bit busy, since I'm trying to complete a music degree and that sucks up a lot of my time, so I'm probably not going to have thousands of words available to exchange everyday. But I do want to try. I want to have a complete story, not all the little snippets and half-chapters that litter my computer right now.
Post below or PM me if you're interested! :)
(Also, I've never had a writing buddy before, so if I've completely misinterpreted the concept, let me know.)
