In Search of Sci-Fi/Fantasy Critique Partner!
Hello, all! I'm excited to be a part of the writers' community. I'm searching for a critique partner who is writing in the same genre as I am and at a similar pace. I haven't been able to find someone in my local community to do this with, and I'm very timid about putting my WIP out there for a bunch of strangers online, so here I am!
Some things about me:
- 35, F
- Located in the U.S.
- Bilingual English/Spanish
- ADHDer
- I'm in the beginning stages of my first novel, an "urban sci-fantasy" story (in English).
- "Plantser"
- Working mom of two, so I aim to write about 300-500 words per day.
- I'm really friendly, open-minded, and eager to learn! I'd love some help with solidifying my plot and making my characters really stand out.
Specific things I'm looking for in a writing/critique partner:
- Female writer
- Aged 30's-40's
- Genre: Also writing sci-fi or fantasy, and at a similar skill/experience level
- Open to feedback, and willing to give honest feedback
- Writing/experience level: Novice-intermediate. Someone serious about finishing their first draft but may struggle to make the time to write, and therefore is more of a "marathoner" vs. "sprinter" like I am.
- Writing in English
- Goals/expectations/commitment: Able to stay in communication regularly through Reddit or Discord, and eventually perhaps texting; additionally, willing/able to meet via video call for 30min-1 hour every two weeks or once per month (and yes, see each other's faces :))
- Meeting Place: Reddit, Discord, e-mail, open to texting eventually
If this sounds like you and you want to be writing buddies, please hmu!! I'm looking forward to meeting you!
