What This Thread is for:

– talk about what you’re writing

– talk about the writing process and what works and doesn’t work

– discuss things like characterization or plot issues you’re working through

– brainstorm ideas

– getting/giving positive feedback if solicited

What we’re not doing

-writing prompts

– any kind of shaming about topics or anything like that

Optional Discussion Topic: Collaborations

Sometimes you and someone else have a great idea, or a weaker writer will team up with someone who has more skill. Co-written books are quite common!

Have you ever collaborated with someone on a writing project? How did it go? What strategies worked or didn’t work? Would you do it again with the same person or another person?
