Mid-30s Romantasy / 'Noir' Fantasy indie writer looking for a fellow writer who enjoys or has written in the genre for brainstorming, motivation, and plot help.

Good evening,

I'm resurrecting an old account for this because I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but here's the broad strokes.

• I am writing a Romantasy with a focus on Noir Mystery and action. Might work, might not work, I know it's a weird combo.
• I'm aiming at Indie Communities with a long-term goal to garner enough interest that switching to KU will be successful.
• My first draft is almost complete but I've spent almost two years in a bubble and I need to start talking with other authors to maintain perspective. I've read a lot of popular books in the genre, but having someone familiar with the stories would be very helpful for insight and, frankly, my sanity.

I'm not looking for a beta reader or a co-writer, I just want to meet another writer who I can exchange ideas with, maintain a productive path forward alongside, and hold each other accountable.

It's okay if you are at the start of your process. I am happy to help with outlining, read your work, give you my perspective on your writing, or help you out with writer's block.
