Looking for a collaborator

@blackstallion21

I know your thread is kinda getting derailed, and my apologies for my part in it.

But keep this in mind: the authors here who like to have fun and get silly with each other in the forum usually tend to be the same people easy to get along with and willing to be helpful in whatever ways we can.

So just roll with it, have fun and maybe make a few friends and see what happens. šŸ˜€
This ā˜ļøā˜ļøā˜ļøā˜ļø

Massive correlation between those of us needy friendly enough to be silly together and also being willing to help each other out.

Even deadly-serious, grown-up authors like me [it says here].

Omg we're just anonymous internet colleagues!

It's totally professional and I have never ever joked about showing up on his doorstep and inviting myself in and drinking all of his coffee and sitting on his lap.
Officer, I swear I wasn’t looking at my phone when I veered off the road.

Back to OP’s point… er, no I think it’s been well answered. Carry on.
 
what helps me is to talk to other similar minded/kinks and do a kinda live story. so i write a paragraph or a section then the other person writes, back and forth. i use discord and it is easy to get a flow. if me and the other person "flow" we can write a full story in a night. then you just take the chat and form it into a story. i have had writers blocks where i have a good sex scene or a good lead up but something just doesnt feel right about it, then after a bit of a chat i am able to proceed with my story. depending what category you are working on i dont mind helping.
 
Having written several stories with three different collaborators, I can say that a request for a collaboration is possibly not going to work.

Generally speaking, based on the collaborations I know that exist (including my own experience), they've tended to start more organically, with fellow writers having a friendship of one sort or another, before hand.

You might get lucky, and I wish you well with your request, but I wouldn't be holding my breath.

Working remotely with someone where you have goodwill stored up from friendship or some other rapport-building exercise makes a huuuuge difference in how disagreements get handled. Without that it's just some pushy asshole you have never even seen in person. Fuck that guy.
 
Or, like Rob said, Story Ideas is great as well if you want something more immediate. I'll even try to keep everyone human if I participate šŸ˜† (Unless you write non-human, in which case... :nana: )
I'm just thinking of that scene in Scott Pilgrim where Wallace is just changing all the pronouns when Scott talks to make himself be interested in the story. Are you sure that hairy gay man is a 'bear' and not actually a bear, anthro? That's a lot of blackberries for a human...
 
This is a very helpful type of relationship. The type of niche I do isn't really in very many people's ballpark, but I found one who gets it, and we help each other out at times when one or the other gets stuck. Just having somebody who's on the same page as you, who can help from anything from a simple ra-ra cheerleading to "I need someone to read this to make sure I'm not shooting myself in the foot." (Which I'm very glad I asked, because I very nearly did without a gentle nudge away.)

Hang around, get to know some people here, and reach out to those who share your interests to strike up a writing relationship.

@anthrodisiac likes to force me to put on my Story ideas moderator hat, in this case, to repeat my standard warning over on that forum that posting there with a bare request for someone to write a story to order has a poor success rate.
You would do much better over there posting the idea and creating some discussion which might organically either encourage you to write yourself, or find a collaborator.

You look so snazzy in that hat, so yeah, I try to get you to wear it more.
 
It was already politically incorrect at the time.
Oh come now! I shall say zis only once!

Just because RenƩ the cafe owner was having affairs with both his waitresses and trying to keep them from his wife while also transmitting Resistance messages with the secret radio hidden under his bedridden mother-in-law, as well as hiding two jolly British airmen in wine barrels as he attempts to get them and the stolen painting of ze Madonna wiz ze big boobies back to England to raise funds, all while evading the Nazi military who like drinking in his cafe, in particular the flamboyant Italian who seduces everyone and shy Lt Gruber who keeps trying to seduce him, dealing with the doddery old man who keeps trying to seduce the mother in law, and occasionally getting arrested and having to avoid the sleazy Gestapo officer's torture chamber (who was many Brits intro to S&M), and more double entendres than you can shake a baguette at, doesn't make it politically incorrect.

Good moaning!
 
It was so indiscriminately politically incorrect that it came out on the other side and became acceptable.

Either that, or the occasional scene with Helga in her underwear made it all alright.
I think the odd scene of Michelle in stockings and suspenders and little else might have been the clinching factor.

It certainly was for my dad, when I got my parents to take me to the stage show, just after Gorden Kaye recovered from his head injury.

The show was remarkably popular in Germany, but bombed in France.

Who can figure out the French? I love France but I can’t figure them out

My dad had a thing for Yvette. Helga and Michelle probably helped shape my preference for bossy and/or competent women.
