New Years Means New Stories

Also want to add perhaps a soul mate sort of Rp? I know it can be overdone but I figured we can discuss some ideas. Im mainly leaning towards something like the Fallen series by Lauren Kate? One of them has constantly been searching for the other, always finding them but always too late to make them realize who they are. This time when they find each other, it could very well be the last time. No resurrection for their soul to be found in another time.

So, yeah! Let me know if ya wanna brainstorm other stuff and see if we can make something. I need more rp!

New Years Means New Stories

-cracks knuckles, pops back and neck. sips coffee-

I haven't posted here in quite some time. Life took some crazy turns, got busy, and I fell off the face of the earth for a bit. BUT! I am here, I would like to make a return to writing of sorts and take on a writing partner (or two).

I have some ideas, mostly reviving some old ones and adding in some new elements to hopefully keep it interesting for a long-term roleplay. I of course am open to hear other ideas if you feel we might be able to connect and make our writing styles work together. So, on that note, I will list the ideas, followed by some general rules/expectations and will try to keep things brief.

1. Modern times with some elements of the supernatural. Demons, witches and warlocks mostly but room for other beings if we choose. My character is a young woman, mid 20s, and considers herself an adept witch so to speak. She enjoys the modern conveniences of today, but still holds to keeping some things traditional. She left her coven because she saw they had become too greedy, their practices more focused on self-fulfilling material needs over practical needs and simple guidance. Your character, if you choose the role, would be a demon of sorts she has somehow summoned, and in doing so is bonded to. Details, more plots ideas can be discussed in a PM if this might be a possible interest to you!

2. This is more medieval/fantasy with some steampunkish elements (played the Fable games? Think something like that for the atmosphere and world) Now, this idea can go a few ways, but one of our characters would be cursed (animal form at day or night, human form the other half). Unfortunately, trouble arises, rumors spread of a creature killing travelers and needs to be dealt with. One of us would be amongst these hunters, and while tracking the other down, comes across a human in the midst of their crime. Plot ideas and whatnot could be discussed further once we have something a bit more solid and who would want to play what part, etc. So, let me know if this is more your style.

3. I want something sort of enemies to lovers sort of situation. So we can discuss some stuff here and see if something comes out of it

LASTLY!

A few quick things to mention before we move on to writing together..

1. Smut. Normally I am a fade to black writer, but I know I need to dip my toes in uncharted waters sometimes, and this area is it for me. If you are more comfortable with FtB as well, then let me know and I am happy to do that. If you feel my writing in this area isn't competent, let me know and I will stop and we can use the FtB method as well. This does not mean I want to write smut every few posts, I am story/plot driven and would only write smut scenes if I felt it would add more to the story, otherwise I might skip it entirely and move on to the next scene, whatever.

2. I am a female in real life, and I will write main female characters. Period. Sides characters, NPCs and such, I will write whatever is needed. This also means I would prefer the main character on your end to be male as when it comes to relationships in my stories, at least the main one, I prefer straight couples together. Again, side relationships can be whatever. That also said, I would be more comfortable with my partner being male, or comfortable and willing to write as one even if you are not one in real life. Just, let me know, I'd hate to say something weird in OOC :p

3. I do not, and will not, tolerate one-liners. No exceptions to this anymore. 2-3 paragraphs minimum, more is always welcomed of course! I know I can get carried away sometimes. And I am of the understanding sometimes a post may not be a long one due to a lull in action, or perhaps in a monologue, but please, give me some effort, something to chew on and work with to write back. EFFORT. That is all I ask.
Which also goes for spelling, grammar, punctuation. I am not perfect, nor have I said I was. But I do hope as a writer you would use some effort to correct mistakes if they are caught, I will not spend forever deciphering a post if there are too many errors.

4. Availability. I know for most of us, we have a life outside of this realm of online things. I am a mother, and my life and priorities will come first before anything. Mondays-Fridays I am mostly available through the day, meaning I can easily get a post a day written up, if not every other. Weekends are a no go from me as that is my dedicated family/friends time and to catch up on stuff from the week if needed. If I know I will be gone for an extended period of time, I will let you know so you do not think I ghosted you or something, and I would expect the same in return if something comes up on your end. That is all.

Okay, I feel that covers the major points of things. If you have questions, throw me a message as I do not always get a notification for replies to my threads, but I will check in regularly when able to I hope this helps, and I hope we can write together! Thank you <3

Friends, Strangers... Maybe Lovers

Westridge Elementary, third grade. Amy is the new kid in school, which for a small populated town, is quite the big deal. Amy was nervous to start a new school, in a new city and state far from what she grew up with. And being the new kid always seemed to have its downfalls, particularly bullies. After a few weeks, Amy became the target for the name calling, the shoving, just about anything your typical elementary school kid could come up with. Until one day he stood up for her. He had scolded the other kids, shoved them away and helped Amy clean up the mess the others made to torment her.

From that day, the two were inseparable. Amy promised to be there for him, keep him out of trouble, and in doing so, he was there to have her back if things were out of her control. All through elementary and middle school it went on like this. He helped her study to pass her classes, and she would take the fall if he got into any mischief (on purpose or not, she didn't care.) But high school changed things; he got on the football team, and while he wasn't the star player, he was good enough, and the way all the girls would swoon over him, none would be the wiser. He was a great athlete, though he had dreams to pursue other paths, he knew getting a scholarship if you did well in sports was an easy way to go.

Amy on the other hand, began slipping. Life at home hadn't really gotten better, she began drinking, sneaking stuff from her mother's stash and partying. She had smoked pot a few times, but that was the extent of any drugs (except caffeine, lol) she took. She still looked out for him, keeping him from ruining his streak of good grades and staying out of trouble so he could get to a good college. He still helped her study to pass, barely, but she managed. When the two were away from all the school drama, they were still attached at the hip.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

As you can see, it's the usual cliche of close friends growing up together. Both oblivious to their feelings for the other, even though everyone else teases them and tries to get them to date each other. But, I want to explore more than just that-

It's their last summer together before he takes off for college, so they plan a little for a few weeks to visit one of his relatives (maybe an aunt who lives across seas somewhere and offers up her house for them to stay at while she is out of town for work, we can discuss these details later.) So, the two of them are exploring, partying, having fun, making memories. And without all the pressure of everyone else, perhaps they discover that they like each other. But, they don't admit it, scared of ruining the friendship they've built for so long.

We can explore some time skips, he is away at college, she is stuck in his hometown still trying to make something of herself; working odd jobs, saving up money so she can move away, maybe find a college or trade school where she can find something she might be good at. But things seem to keep pulling her further from those dreams. But now, he comes back to visit (maybe summer or a holiday) and the two meet up again. They hadn't spoke much since he left, and now it just feels different....

These are just some vague ideas we can work with in regards to the story, but I am craving something a bit more laid back compared to what I've been writing. There will still be some dark themes involved (alcohol, drug abuse maybe, self harm might come up here and there, but I won't make it heavy subject matter) and while I love the romance aspect of the two of them eventually coming to terms with their feelings and themselves, I do not write smut or any intimate scenes. Fade to black only.

-With that said, if you are wanting to write with me, I must emphasize being 18 or older, though I would much prefer someone in their older 20s. (I'm not as young as I wish I was, so writing with someone who could be my own kid would be weird.) And, well, it would be more comfortable for me if my writing partner were male, or had no issues writing as male characters.
-Be able to write 2+ paragraphs per post, enjoy character and story building with me, doesn't mind the occasional out of character chatting, and be willing to put in some effort. I know I make mistakes with grammar and punctuation, but I do my best to give everything a quick look over to catch those mistakes, I ask you to do the same.
-Communication. I admit, my reply times are all over. I can go from a reply a day, to maybe once or twice a week. I'm doing a lot of at home work to make ends meet with my family, and I let myself get sucked into my work and there might be times I do not reply as fast. I will do my best to let you know if something is coming up and I may not be able to reply as quickly, and just simply ask you do the same for me as well. That said, weekends are about the only days I will not do any replies (it is family time and usually catching up on other house work). Also on communication, if you are not liking where the roleplaying is going, just say something. We can either sort it out, fix it and make it something we both still enjoy, start over, or just drop it all together. But please, don't just ghost me. I would prefer to be told the truth than left wondering.

Anyway... If you've made it to the end, and perhaps think we can brainstorm off my idea and turn it into something we can write and create, feel free to message me (best way to reach out to me) or comment here and I will try to get back at you as soon as I can.

Do not shy away if you might have other ideas, I am open to talk about them if you think we could be a good match in writing together!

I'm looking for a new dance partner

-raises hand- I could be interested in brainstorming together over your ideas, just shoot me a message if you're still looking!

Just one lovely story (MxF)

If you are still perhaps looking to play this out, feel free to send me a message. Maybe we can work something out?

Wanna Write Together?

Hey all!

Know it's been awhile since I posted much in the searching department, but would really love to add one or two more to my current roleplays, if anyone is interested, of course.

I will add that my IRL life has gotten a bit busy, so I might only get 1-2 replies weekly out depending. I will promise at least one a week for sure, but I am currently working on a pretty big project, so a lot of my time is being dedicated to that.

Anyway, I have the mentioned ideas above. But am really looking for some casual, maybe slice-of-life stories. I don't mind adding some dark grittiness to it (there could be the usual life problems with an addiction, abusive relationships/exs and the like, only if one is comfortable doing so) Or we can add some other small elements to keep it a bit more lively than just place old real life, but again I am craving something casual, long-termish, and good story building,

Message me if you might want to brainstorm and throw some ideas at each other and see if we can connect on something. Have a blessed day!

Wanna Write Together?

Just wanna post an update. I am still looking for one, possibly two writing partners!

On top of that, I had another random idea for a plot. As cliche and lame as it might sound, but I was thinking sort of a soul mate scenario??

It can be played out in a few ways. First thought was soul mates are found by matching marks that appear after a certain age. In this world, most people find their other half, but there is still a percentage who do not. This is because they could be born in different countries, different social standings, etc.

Another idea could be sort of along the reincarnation theory of soul mates (similar to the Fallen Series by Lauren Kate) where one of our characters is always in search of the other, finding them and having to break a curse before it's too late. We can add our own twists, but it would be a good base to start with.

Message me if these, or previously mentioned ideas, might be up your alley. Thanks for reading!

Wanna Write Together?

Hello there!

And welcome to my search thread. It has been awhile since I've actively sought out more writing partners, but alas, here I am. I will try to keep this as simple as possible, no promises!

I would like to preface this all with a few facts. I am married and a mother, so my real life priorities will come first. During the weekdays, I am more active and can usually push out a post daily/every other day. Weekends I take to focus my time with the family while we are all together, so I typically do not respond during these days. So, keep these in mind if interested in writing with me. Now, I know life can get crazy, and things happen. I also know one can lose interest or motivation, I get it. I've had a rough several months personally, and just now trying to dig myself out of the hole of depression. But, I do try to keep my partners in the loop if I can't post for an extended period of time, and would like the same courtesy, if at all possible. Or, if you happen to lose interest in what we are doing, let me know. I won't get offended, promise. Or, if we just need to do something entirely different, let me know. I am pretty understanding and forgiving (maybe a bit too much at times, lol)

All of that aside, shall we set down some rules/expectations?

1. I write romantic paired couples as male/female, with me preferably being the female main character (just easier for me to get into that headspace, ya know?) Also, to add on to this, I DO NOT write smut. I'm sorry if you came here looking for that, but I will not do it. I am all for the fade-to-black option.
2. With romance being a possibility, please be over the age of 18. I would much prefer someone over the age of 25, but at the very least please, for all legal purposes, be over 18. And not just for romance purposes, but for possible 'mature' language and themes that might take place.
3. Be literate. I am not asking for perfection, simply because I am far from it myself. But, double check spelling, grammar, punctuation. I want to understand what your reply is, not spend hours deciphering it due to errors. Minor things I can overlook as long as they do not happen often, but just put some effort into your writing. I will do the same.
4. Able to write at minimum 3 paragraphs per post. Two can be acceptable if there is something to go off of, and especially if not much is going on except dialogue, but at least be able to give 3 or more paragraphs. I need story, I need detail, something to chew on and work with, yeah? Again, I don't except a wall of text, but I do wish for more than a few lines of words.
5. I will only write my RPs in PMs. It is just easier for me to do so, to keep track of and whatnot. Also, I am content with ooc chat, too. So, if you need to just chat or bullshit with someone while we write, I'm cool with that! So, don't be afraid to ask me how the weather is, or whatever people chat about these days :p

I think this should cover the bare minimum of things for me. If you have questions or need clarity, feel free to PM me. Now, I do not have a set idea in mind. Again, I've been on the sidelines for months now and am just now getting back into writing and being creative again, but I am always craving for something along the lines listed below-

-Single mother (this can be a simple slice of life sort of idea, or perhaps she strikes a deal with someone?)
-Arranged marriage scenarios (can be modern-ish or more fantasy/medieval)
-Vampires (I'm a real sucker for these.... Get it, haha?)

Also, anything along the lines of fantasy (think lord of the rings/eragon type of world, but with our own twists)
I'm even up for combining time periods/genres if we can think of something suitable together.

If you might at all be interested in brainstorming some ideas, again PM me (I don't always get notifications for replies to my threads)

Here I Am, Once again....

Wanted to update with an idea!

So, sort of time travely, melding of different times/worlds.
Character A lives in modern day times, has a normal everyday life. Character B could be from more medival/fantasy times, probably a traveler or local villager of sorts.

B stumbles A on a day out, finding A to be pretty banged up and not looking so great. So B brings them back their home against all warnings to try and bring them back to health again.

How this time shunt happened we can discuss, and where we might want things to go. Some romantic feelings I could guess are a possibility as B tries to help A adjust to this weird life they got thrown into.

Let me know if this might be an interest and we can talk it over further!

Here I Am, Once again....

Insert terrible improv of Kelly Clarkson here, something about writing and what not...

Anyway. I had to take some time away from writing, get myself right again. Lost some partners along the way from lack of interest or being ghosted entirely. But, not going to let it stop me, hence this wonderful search thread!

I am going to keep this as short and simple as possible

1. I understand life gets busy and chaotic, especially this time of year with approaching holidays. I do not expect a reply every single day, because I myself can't keep with such a schedule. But twice a week at least would be fine. IF you will be taking a leave and be gone for an extended time, just let me know. I will extend the same courtesy, of course, and keep you aware if I might be absent for a time and can't reply.
2. Posting length- This can vary, but I will most certainly not tolerate one-liners. Minimum, I would think 2-3 decent paragraphs is attainable per post. I might type out more for introductory posts, or those of importance. All in all I do ask for some effort. I do not want to put in the time to write up a good post, only to have maybe one paragraph in return for it.
3. Limits- Honestly, I tend to stay away from the smut writing. I am not confident enough in that area of writing to want to include it in my roleplays, so the fade to black method would much more preferable. Aside from that, I do not mind if a character might have a past that involves dark or taboo things, and the mentioning of them is okay IF it helps build story. But constantly bringing it up can be annoying, redundant and will make me lose interest. If clarification is needed for other limits, we can discuss them surely.
4. Pairings, etc- As a female myself, I would rather write the female main character. I am poorly at writing in a male perspective, at least for a main character. But I am capable of writing additional characters if they add to our story or help push it along, or as needed for background support. Also, since I am a sucker for romance and usually like it to happen at some point, I only do so as FxM characters. Other characters can be whatever, but main two I would like to keep as female/male pairing.
5. Setting/genre- Now this is... as basic as can be. I don't really write much outside of modern or fantasy/medieval settings. I also enjoy supernatural like elements- vampires, werewolves, witches, warlocks sort of stuff. We can always add other elements if we stick to something modern, or can keep it sort of slice-of-life. Adventure and romance, again I adore writing as long as it is done correctly. Some silly cliches like the enemy to lovers, arranged marriages, etc. They can all be fun to write if done correctly.

And last thing, because I do aim my stuff with some mature themes, romance and what not. PLEASE, be over the age of 18 to participate. I would much prefer 25 and older really, but to avoid that legal stuff and my sanity/morals, be of age to write with me.

Anyway, I know some of this went longer than intended, but hopefully it gets the point across. Feel free to DM me if you wish to discuss ideas further, or comment here and I will get to you as soon as I can. Thank you for reading this through <3
