*updated 27 December 2014* I decided to reopen this since I have a touch more time than I thought, and see if there might be other folks interested in writing a story or two.
My writing style is closest to Advanced and normally approaches Prestige or thereabouts, and that is what I would expect from partner(s). Of course we're only human and misspellings, grammatical errors and syntax problems are going to happen - I make them all the time, especially at the end of a long day. Even so, I'd like to believe that what I'm reading from a partner is a piece where some time and thought - and at least a modicum of blessed editing - is put into the writing. As for post length, I'm not a stickler - dialogue will of course be shorter than exposition on a scene (unless of course it's soliloquy time or some such! haha) I definitely prefer quality over quantity, within reason, and will always strive to give as good as I get.
I'm female, and I usually write (and prefer) female roles though I can - and have - written male main characters. I'm also well over 18-years old, and prefer my partners to be over 18 as well. I go to school now, and will be working soon too, so I should be able to write about every 1 - 3 days - and if for whatever reason I cannot? I'll always extend the same courtesy I hope my partners would pay me, and communicate, communicate, communicate. (Besides, I love to chat and get to know people - OOC talk is always welcome). I write for fun, because it's a great hobby that keeps me thinking - it's not a job, and I certainly don't expect anyone else to make it one either!
As for the writing I enjoy? The genres that never fail to grab me are fantasy (high, low and modern); sci fi (space opera, dystopian, [fill-in-the-blank] apocalypse, etc.), anything at all supernatural (I have such a ridiculous "thing" for werewolves!); historic and alternate history (Regency era, Renaissance, Medieval, WW II, Victorian, American Wild West and Gold Rush, Elizabethan, and so on); horror (Lovecraftian, Poe or other); steampunk and cyberpunk; and any combination of the aforementioned as well!
I certainly do enjoy romance in an RP (though it's not always a requirement), and occasionally the more mature stuff with a trustworthy partner, but I never write pure romance stories, much less pure smut. I also have no problem writing gore, violence or combat scenes (I love writing fight scenes!).
But to be fair and all kinds of up front, potential partners looking for anime-based, fandom-based, pre-made characters, furry, anthro, LGBT, teenage/high school and/or slice of life RPs will be terribly disappointed in me, because those are pretty much what I won't write.
I don't have any plots in mind at the moment because that's something I like to work out with a partner, particularly if my partner has an idea they've been dying to write/try out - I can get with other people's enthusiasm easily. Please don't take that for passivity though - I can certainly write NPCs and advance a plot, and I expect my partner to as well. So no, I won't be rolling on my back, feet in the air and expecting to be carried through a story by a partner; and in the same vein, I also won't be following anyone's script for my character(s), nor carry anyone through a plot either.
I prefer to RP in the 1x1 forums though I could be convinced to write in PMs. And if you've made it this far, and think we might write a lovely story or two? Feel free to drop me a PM.
