Hi there, I'm MaerBear. What I'm looking for is a buddy who wants to form a bond of mutual support. To create, in the space between us, a container that is safe and holds no judgment if you didn't write that day, just unconditional support, and maybe some curiosity. Maybe workshopping the occasional idea, venting about creative challenges. Perhaps someone to experiment with parallel writing sessions with. I'm not exactly sure what such a relationship would look like, but I'm open to exploration and iteration. I'm currently healing my relationship to writing, learning to how enjoy it again. While I mostly write fantasy, I also write some magical realism short stories, lyrical essays, and poetry (the latter two I tend not to share since they are for me ;p). I'm a huge fan of artful, poetic and efficient prose and I try not to let that passion impede actually writing. I just finished the first draft of the first volume of my WIP. Currently open to beta readers if anyone is interested, and I have some headspace available to offer critique. I have two primary stories. One (which is shelved for now) is a preindustrial secondary world fantasy about a young, headstrong duchess working through trauma while investigating a mystery. The second, my WIP, is a secondary world, eastern fantasy with progression elements and tie ins to my own experiences with and study of eastern mysticism/spirituality and martial arts. Think Cradle meets Name of the Wind with a splash of The First Law. If you connect with this hope for a pressure free, but caring and devoted writing buddy, please reach out.
