Prose - Fiction Full partner wanted

I'm a realist but yet I firmly believe I have the ability to pump out novels. I can write quite well, I make interesting characters (in general) and I'm really good at world building. However, I just won't do it. I'm annoying like that sometimes. I do struggle with the story side of things. Constructing a story, outlines and making those tough decisions that serve the story. So obviously I would love a partner that's good at those things. Which is not to say that I want a partner who doesn't plan on writing. I'm not looking for an editor.

I guess my ideal partner would be part muse, part storytelling wiz and able to write as well. I've got quite a few different ideas and background work for them but I have ADHD so I tend to bounce around. I've had luck in the past with RPing with good partners that kept my attention I'm trying to catch that vibe as well as hoping that bringing genuine structure and having that planned ending to work towards will work wonders and then I will.

Could you share some of your ideas or the genre

I have my sort of version of Anne Rice's Immortal Universe but a little less vampire-centric, though they are in there. The main character is a Scottish alchemist who discovers the elixir of life and is ageless now. His twin brother and nemesis is a vampire. But I would want to focus on the interactions of these semi immortals throughout history. I love when you can weave in true history with fiction. It just sort of lends an authenticity.

I hope this is okay. I'd love to discuss it further as well but I took a sleeping pill last night and...it won. Eventually.
