I have a story about a couple of teens who don’t know each other and suddenly have powers in present day. They find themselves linked to a realm of mid evil times. They have to juggle two different lives with moral support one of the teens dad. If interested, message me.

Hey everyone! I’m looking to gain more experience in book doctoring, specifically for fantasy novels, which I do on the side and really enjoy.

For those unfamiliar, book doctoring involves taking an old manuscript that you might not feel like revisiting yourself but believe has potential. I can help by refining the character development, dialogue, worldbuilding, and prose to bring out the book’s best elements. For lack of a better word, I do the second draft for you.

Eventually, I’d love to offer this as a freelance service, but for now, I’m just looking to build experience. I've mostly worked on excerpts from published works so far, but working on a complete, unpublished manuscript would be great experience.

So if you have a finished fantasy manuscript that needs polishing but you don’t plan to go back and revise it yourself, feel free to message me—I’d be happy to work on it for free!

Hi all, I hope everyone's well. I just came up with an idea to create a superhero universe based on the satire of superhero films. DM me if you're interested in creating something fun with me.

The Aberrants, a dysfunctional crew of heroes, bumble through space and time, fumbling through moral dilemmas, cosmic chaos and villains with questionable motives—all in a quest to prove that saving the world might be more trouble than it’s worth.

Hello! I’ve been a lifelong writer but I fell out of love with it when I graduated from college. Life took me some crazy turns but I’d love to write my book. I have ideas of things I want to write. I just don’t have the drive. Working full time and financially stressed makes it hard for me to truly relax and focus. There’s also some neurodivergence in the mix. I’m working on getting in the routine again.

I like the idea of a writing buddy I can send ideas too. Bounce ideas off of each other. Or just be a good writing friend. I miss my college days when I could go to writing groups and swap work with people.

I write very feminist fiction. What I am working on now deals a lot with abortion and I am pro choice. A lot of my work has my religious upbringing in it and that wasn’t good so it will probably be best if you aren’t religious. To be honest I just don’t want someone reading my work and disregarding any religious trauma I have.

I also love editing. So, I’d love this to be a collaborative effort with us keeping each other on track.

Hi everyone, I'm trying to create a shared universe between 3 and more stories I had in mind. Here are the 3 stories I have come up so far:

Merciless - A financially strung young man interns for a superhero team, but is socially rejected and finds himself more welcomed by the villains.

A Stitch in Time - A powerful gangster, facing imminent death, uses a time-traveling device to go back to his younger self and warn him of the dangers of his chosen path.

Digital Grave - A disgraced detective, haunted by a tragic past, is forced to confront his demons and hunt down a new serial killer targeting social media influencers.

This shared universe is inspired by many cinematic universes such as the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Lokesh Cinematic Universe.

Hit me up if you're interested in creating a shared universe. Maybe we could combine your world with mine if the themes and stories match. Bonus if you use Discord.

I feel more motivated when someone is at my side. Not sure where to go or what to do, but I know I want to write.

Looking for a friend and writing partner

I'm working on one of my novels but it needs to have the map updated so I'm wanting to put it on hold so I can work on another novel

The only problem is I have no full "plot" around it yet lmao

If you like bouncing ideas back and forth, fantasy, dinosaurs, LGBTQ+ stuff, hit me up

I'd love to hear your ideas as well

Looking for someone to write with because I'm rather terrible at putting anything to paper. I can write well enough, but can't seem to put anything down longer than a few thousand words before I get mentally exhausted by the strain. My creative side is great at making book ideas or writing styles, but actually fleshing out the story from a plot idea is not in my wheel-house of abilites. So if you've been looking for a plot/prompt maker to figure out where a story is going, that's my speciality.

I'm more than happy to study a subject to get a general concept of what is needed to know for the story to make sense, but not interested in writing non-fiction like bibliographies, self-help, or textbooks. I'm a big reader, though I doubt that's much of a rare trait here. I've got a sardonic wit that some appreciate and a veritably verbose vernacular when it comes to word choice. If you're looking for someone like me, just send me a message or reply.

Examples of Book Ideas:

-A pre-apocolyptic story revolving around the perpatrators of the apocolypse where one is a "Merlin" type charcter, in the fact the character moves backwards through time creating some temperal paradoxes for the reader to parse through. So plot would be written in reverse due to the Merlin character orchestrating things from the end to the beginning instead of the other way around.

-A horror genre where the villians, unbeknownst to the readers, have an intrinsic incentive for their deeds. For instance, the villians have a system where fear or terror is monetized into improving their abilities or official positions in nightmare land or wherever so they will act accordingly to get the most return in their terrorization. This is not known, or explained, to the reader so the actions seem more like modus operandi than anything else throughout the tales.

-A fantasy world where crimes are commited by monstrous villians but are solved through beurocratic operations much like crimes are solved in real life. Focuses on the difficulty of navigating a world with tangible deities that cause regaltory red-tape along with the complexities of magic.

-A real life drama that utilizes two "Love Triangles" where there is overlap between causing compex drama that leaves the reader with constant sense of "cliff hanger" and "cringe moments that drag on". Not sure if this would end more comedy or tragedy, but since it's more fiction, could be comedy. At least Shakespearean comedy.

Examples of Writing Styles:

-Using the >!spoiler-mode!< of whatever platform utilized to cover up the internal monologue of characters and leaving only dialogue or observable actions uncovered. This would allow a lot of miscommunication between characters and the confusion itself would play into the story to create a sense of suspense for the reader. This style would be more roleplay oriented.

-Determining the dichotomy of the writer's themselves (think Jungian animus and anima) and splitting that into two unique characters each that then become part of the story. Since they would be more caricatures of the internal personalities of the writers' minds, using this style in a story-line befitting such extremes (youth-oriented: action, adventure, thriller) since it would lead to a 1-dimensional character limitation.

-Using ChatGPT to take significant actions you'd like your character to make next but also throwing in a bit of choas (like drawing a few tarot cards and "conforming it with the meanings described in the cards") to make a more choatic story-line. Obviously, rewriting what ChatGPT regurgitates for ethical and artistic reasons, but maintaining the general novelty of it. Would be best for a story that requires unexplained breaks in characters like horror stories that involve possessions or magic stories where the corruption of the magic warps the mind.

That's it, pretty free most of the day so I'm ready to dive into stuff and get my choas cauldron of a mind popping out ideas one after the other.

Hi all,
I'm looking for a person or few people who would want to exchange poetry and critiques on a pretty regular basis. I'm a pretty regular poster on a few poetry subs but I can't submitt anything I post on there to journals. I'll link a few of my poems I've posted at the bottom of the post so you can get a good sense of the kind of stuff I write. I'm looking for people who have some sort of background in poetry or art, but if you don't have that kind of background but want to get into it, that is also fine. I'd hope to communicate through email or reddit only. Thanks.

Hi all! I’m in my thirties and looking for writing partner that we can work on keeping each other consistent and accountable, reviewing each others work, brainstorming, and supporting each other through the dreaded writers block.

I’ve written out a story outline and am a few chapters in so far. Overall I want this to be story of what happens with the “chosen one” fails.

The story I’m working on (very subject to changing):

Eira Ombras has spent her life in the quiet, mist-laden forests of the south, far from the political intrigues and tensions that plague the capital of Keldera, Makkar. When news arrives of her father’s passing, she ventures north to reunite with her only known family, her brother Aaric—a respected soldier in Keldera’s army. But upon her arrival, Eira learns that Aaric is missing in action amidst escalating tensions and brutal skirmishes with the Waedail, a powerful, mysterious force threatening to overtake the kingdom from the north.

Alone in the shadowed streets of Makkar, Eira finds an unlikely ally in Rynlie Shadecroft, a spirited noblewoman and the betrothed of Kaiden Streum, heir to Makkar’s Lord Protector. Despite Rynlie’s imminent marriage to Kaiden—a union meant to cement trade and stability in Keldera—she harbors a secret: to live a life of her own choosing and protect her people. Together, Eira and Rynlie hatch a bold plan. Rynlie will break free from her duties, and Eira will search for the elusive clues that might lead her to Aaric.

Feel free to DM if you think we could be a match!

I recently began writing a story but I don’t want to publish it myself or take credit for it, I want to sell it to somebody who’s willing to continue it or perhaps develop it into something else. (Professionally, of course & in exchange for money) I’m aware of ‘ghostwriting’ which is very similar but not quite the same, I want to let go off the story altogether and give it to someone else completely. (It’s one of the side pieces I have been writing recently) where can I find someone looking for this sort of ghostwriting

We're going to try to keep it all in one place; for the time being we're going to only allow Discord communities to drop their links, description, and details in this post. Any others will be removed.

Keep in mind this is for community adverts only; if you're just using Discord as a single writer as a preferred method of contact, then you're all good.

This post will repost monthly, so you can link your Discord community once in each new post (once a month).

Hello everyone, so recently I came up with 2 ideas for stories I want to explore.

A Stitch in Time - A powerful gangster, facing imminent death, uses a time-traveling device to go back to his younger self and warn him of the dangers of his chosen path.

Digital Grave - A disgraced detective, haunted by a tragic past, is forced to confront his demons and hunt down a new serial killer targeting social media influencers.

DM me if you're interested in bouncing ideas and writing something amazing with me. Bonus if you have discord and a knack for the crime genre.

I just need a partnership to help me with ideas, opinions, character development, anything and everything! I have two different stories I’m working on, one is urban fantasy and the other is dark royal fantasy.

I would love to help you too of course!

If you have any questions please dm me or comment! Happy Halloween!

Hello. My nickname for now is shrimpy (20M), I'm working on a project which is kinda anti-romance. It's going well so far but I think it would be good to work with someone (preferably on discord). I would like to see how other people write and how they think about their writing. If we were to work together I would be happy to review your work too. Hopefully, we will be able to help each other write better overtime. Please dm me a bit about yourself if you want to work together. Looking foreward to chatting!

I want to build a habit of writing more regularly, since I literally forget that I'm writing. I'd like to just work on my current project a bit every day, no matter how little and have someone to hold me accountable and who wants to do the same thing. Of course I'd also like to talk about our projects, tell each other whay we worked on today, etc. I'm currently working on a fantasy story and my goal is to make a webtoon from it, but I don't care if you write for comics, games, movies or just plain old novels. I care more about the contents of your story.

Hope I'll hear from some people!

I've posted on here before, but Weirdo, 18F, now living over in NYC. I love musicals of all sorts, but I am especially in love with Greek mythology musicals: Hadestown, Mythic, EPIC, etc.

I really loved EPIC, and the way it adapted the Odyssey. One of my other favorite myths is of Bellerophon and Pegasus. Such a fascinating story, with many parallels to the Odyssey.

So I was wondering if anyone would be interested in, as a passion project (sort of, perhaps we'd like to get it produced eventually), creating a Bellerophon musical. I'm looking for a lyricist/composer, but I'm also down to have one person for each. I'd be the librettist.

Genre-wise, I'm thinking perhaps a combination of EPIC, Hadestown, and even a little bit of Parade (musical style and tone towards the end perhaps).

I do have a very basic outline, including ideas I had for minor changes, and certain things perhaps edited out for comfortability reasons (ie: incest). But I'd love to really collaborate and see what we can make!

Timezone wise, I do not care where you're from. Age wise, I'd prefer in the 18-22 range. Experience wise, if you've written a show before, that's great! I'd prefer someone who's written more than one show before, doesn't necessarily have to have been produced! This is a passion/side project, but I'd perhaps like to get it produced eventually.

Feel free to comment below if interested. Can't wait to come up with something great!

So I have bits and pieces of different stories rattling around in my brain. I just need help putting them together. I was wondering if anyone would like to try and write a book with me? I like writing in fantasy. Urban and fantastical worlds. I’m good with dialogue, plotting, describing things, and symbolism. I enjoy editing. Im good with straight or LGBTQ romances.

I'm looking for help or feedback developing factions and their histories in a science-fiction universe centered around advanced technology and its impact on society. Its story is set in a distant future where humanity has spread across multiple planets and star systems. The diverse organizations that play crucial roles in the universe. From peacekeeping and exploration to resource management and wildlife conservation, these factions shape the future of the star system and beyond. This project has to do with roleplay as well, if you're interested in or have experience with it.

looking for a writing partner. I mostly write short stories & vignettes. open to read whatever :)

Good afternoon!

Im currently working on my first novel and seeking a fitting critique partner. Genre: Horror, partner can be writing any genre, preferably not anime. Expectations: I'd like to exchange chapters for critiques given and received in a timely manner.

If this sounds suiting to you, let's get on it ! I read and write quickly.

Hey, all!

It's me again. I (19M) am looking for a Writing Mentor with some experience - having published or is in the process of publishing a book. I do have some experience with Writing, though not a whole story, and I do feel a sense of trepidation when trying to put my ideas on paper.

I'm mostly looking for someone to walk me through the process, share excerpts and thought processes with me, and, in general, show me the ropes. In return, I could provide edits to any work you'd like me to look at. I know it's not much, but I'm a broke college student lol.

If you're interested, please send me a private message with your favourite season, so that I know you've read the post. Thank you, and have a good day!

Looking for writing accountability buddies that enjoy poetry, wouldn’t be mind sharing work with each other, and making sure the other is still writing. If you like poetry but write other genres still hit me up.

i am looking for an adult who is taste in both seinen and shonen manga especially new gen

status- terms of story, I have the full manga arc structure done

Genre-action, adventure, psychological drama, dark, redemption.

if interested feel free to dm

So, I did some research using AI, and I found some islands in the Japanese Archipelago that can fit the urban setting for my story.

However, I am not really good at structural ideas, and I have no idea about how to set the whole city there.

Should I be worried? Because I ain't good at infursructure.

Looking for a Black/Brown writing partner! I am looking for BIPOC authors specifically so that I can talk shop with them about exploring themes around race & racism, which is something unique to our life experience. This is not something I am looking to debate and all snarky/whiny comments about this will be reported and blocked.

Would any Black/Brown writers like to do a regular (weekly/biweekly) writing exchange where we share and give feedback on what we've written? I'm working towards getting published, so if you are too, we should connect. Comment below or DM me if you're interested!

About me:

• I am 30 y/o Filipino, non-binary (they/them), and current in the West Coast US, if timezone is something folks need to consider! Most of my writing experience is actually in academia (essay writing as a double major in two very essay heavy areas) and journalism (mainly editing, but did some articles in college & a couple pieces independently published).

• I am currently working on my first book, which is a romance-action-comedy-thriller type thing and really need feedback on it. However, I also write fantasy and sci-fi and will likely try to transition into exclusively writing fantasy/sci-fi/speculative fiction if I get published. I am also working on potentially doing a bunch of contests!

• I have years of experience as a professional copywriter & editor, and having been a freelance writer/author and editor as well. My background in academia also means I get through editing pretty fast, so you'd get really thorough editing/feedback plus a good turn around. I'm not requiring that folks be professionals though! I'd just like someone who can check in with me regularly and give me feedback also in a timely manner. I am very comfortable giving feedback and some notes on poetry, but I'm afraid I'm best at non-fiction or fiction prose editing.

• I'm open to brainstorming with you about your work as long as that is something you are also open to! I am also very private so I don't share anything that I am not allowed to, and I think people who intentionally or unapologetically plagiarize suck.

• absolutely no AI used here.

I spent my childhood devouring movies, but never touching books. So when I read a script I can envision it as a play or a film and analyze it and generate feedback, but I can't invent from scratch, I can't write from scratch. I love theater and a good play, I love character driven drama with no frills, just characters going through challenges and being tested and making difficult choices. I don't have ideas, but I want to work with you on your ideas to help form them into something we can both be proud of. I don't want to invent, I just want to help mold an already existing good idea into something perfect. This is the kind of collaboration I'm interested in. My end goal is to direct these scripts for screen or stage. Hope someone out there is interested! Please let me know!

Now, as much as I hate AI in many aspects, I use it a lot as a search engine.

However, I am not good at naming things like places or special items (Not Characters), mainly due to my poor naming skills and because many people step up their game and use names inspired from other languages. This is very common in thee many forms of media I enjoy.

Don't get me wrong, I am NOT saying that I will rely on it, making a 100% AI-generated story. I just want to use it to help me in naming things because I am not good at it, and because I work alone, so rest assured that the AI won't interfere with the script or anything that has significant impact on the story I am writing.

I will even do proper research for the names when needed.

I just wanna know your personal opinion on this, or maybe your own experience, because I am scared from using AI and getting trashed because of it.

Hi there! I am looking for a writing buddy to share my writing with, give critiques, bounce ideas off each others, etc. I always had a love for writing, but I struggle to keep the hobby going without a community or a buddy. Bit about me; I'm 25, live in the US, and love movie/film/TV critiques, fantasy and comedy. I am currently writing poetry, but I want to expand into writing stories.

Genre/s: Any 

Hello fellow writers!

Goals/expectations/commitment: None 

Writing/experience level: Any 

Meeting place: Discord

Hello!

I'm currently on the lookout for a critique partner. Whether you're into fantasy, romance, science fiction, poetry, etc doesn't really matter to me I'm just eager to connect with someone dedicated to honing their craft. forward to connecting with like-minded writers!

A bit about me: (M) Netherlands. I've been writing for two years now, I'm working on a comic book script.

What I'm looking for in a critique partner:

Constructive Criticism:

I value honest feedback that helps me improve my writing. I'm looking for someone who can provide constructive criticism on plot, character development, dialogue, pacing, and overall storytelling.

Regular Communication: It would be great to establish a routine for sharing work and giving feedback. Whether it's weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly, I'm committed to a consistent exchange of ideas and critiques. one (or multiple) dedicated to honing their craft.
