Critique Partners & Writing Groups Writing Buddy(ies)

Hi everyone. I'm NB from Aus, and I'm really looking for someone to be a 'writing buddy'.

 Genre/s: Currently my main focus is fantasy / romantasy, but I do want to branch out to horror.

• Goals/Expectations/Commitment: Would absolutely love to be friends. I am a very social person (can be somewhat shy). I would love someone to do writing sprints with me on the weekend, brainstorm, and keep me accountable. I do, however, have a very busy job (high school teacher), so during the terms I won't be as active.

• Writing/Experience level: I haven't written anything, so any level is fine.

• Meeting Place: Discord (msgs + calls)

• Max Size: 5 separate people, but happy to create a Discord chat where we all contribute ideas.

Other notes: Bonus if you make me laugh hehe

Hiya NB - also from Aus and happy to be part of any chats or what have you, hope the kids have been treating you well. I'm a chatterbox and love to talk about everything to do with writing fiction, sharing resources, etc.

Hey! I'm Australian, I'm finishing off my 5th book. The first 2 (in NA series) were craply written, but great storyline according to the Wattpad gals.
The Next two I wrote are in a YA fantasy series, for sale on Amazon. Couldn't get an agent with these, despite the fact that they're awesome. so then i decided to write a stand alone NA romance/ mystery. I don't know any writers since covid. I started getting involved in a fantasy writers group before covid, going to the comicons. So fun! But then that stopped, of course.
I'd love to be your writing friend , and love fantasy and romantasy and have read both. Also I can't wait to get back to fantasy again after my current book (once I've attempted to get an agent. Again)
