Yes I KNOW the Writer's Guild exists, but I'm just looking for a couple of people to chat with about writing and swap stories so we can critique each other's work. Anyone up for that?

I may be interested, although I'm not that good at writing!

Yay! I don't really have any writer friends so I'm on the hunt for some. Are you writing a novel? Or are you a poet?

Yup novel as well! I'm calling it 'Iron' at the moment. What's yours called and what's it about?

That's really cool! I see the reason for your SN. Iron is about a dragon called Gauge, who wants to reclaim his kingdom and recover his 'heart', in the process dragging along a woman called Lore so that she can open the only gate that leads there.
It's sounds kinda dumb, but I suppose that at the end of the day Lord of the Rings is about a little person trying to get rid of a ring

No, see in my world the dragons have two- an ordinary one, of course, and a magical one. Think of it as instead of pumping blood, it helps to absorb and pumps magic, and it's how the dragon uses magic and flies. Of course, a dragon can survive with only one heart (which sounds backwards, but yeah haha), unless an adamant (aka diamond) weapon is used on the magic heart, which is basically like a gem, therefore shattering it and the magic released basically fries the ordinary heart and the dragon's inside.

Oh wow that's really clever! I don't think I've ever seen anything about dragons or just like magical creatures in general having two hearts. I like it! Thanks haha. It's a bit weird but that's the way I like it

Hello! I will admit that a lot of my work is focused on more mature subject matter, but I'll post content warnings at the very least. If anyone needs a proofreader, I would be happy to help.

And hi! So, how are you? Really, this question goes out to everyone, but still. Also, slowly realizing how inadequate I am because I mainly write fanfiction. Fanfiction with characters that I've made myself, but still. And the quality of my work has been eroding recently in my opinion, presumably because of stress. Then again, I'm pretty much always a ball of anxiety and bOY DO I TALK TOO MUCH.

Hi! It's always great to see fellow writers! I have alot of stories I want to write, but my main one is currently this one story that I'll describe as Game of Thrones, but with alot more magical elements and less explicit scenes. If becoming an author doesn't work out, then I'd also be interested in becoming a playwright.
I've participated in NaNoWriMo (though never Camp NaNoWriMo), but could never finish. This'll be my third year doing it.
I also have a pseudonym planned out—which is also what I plan to legally change my name to anyway—and that would be Elizabeth Jane Knightley.

I honestly wouldn't even know how to begin signing up for NaNoWriMo. Never mind the fact that I've never finished a full-length book before. I always lose motivation, decide I'll come back to it later, and then when I do come back to it, I start to hate it and wish I'd just scrapped it and rewritten the whole thing from scratch. Only, that would take time I don't have. 𝓣𝓲𝓷𝓾𝓿𝓲𝓮𝓵 : Sounds like a cool name. Very regal.

Rip Tome I have like 1,500 words left and I'm gonna finish it if it kills me //screams Hello Wade! I'm alright, how about you? I'm joining you in fanfic hell I've been neglecting my actual original stories someone stop me I'm mainly just tired + stressing over the fact that character muse won't cooperate with me. Like, this one oneshot still has a ways to go before it's finished, and it's already over 1,000 words. Please let me rest, OC's. Please. Ha, I'm truthfully still planning out most of those. Working out the kinks, really. Wouldn't want to seriously put a largely-unfinished project out there, really.
