Looking for a writing buddy who reads (and/or writes) a lot of psychological thrillers to swap chapters as they're written. As in, I finish a chapter and send it to you, and vice versa, until the book is finished. Rinse and repeat if we get along and want to keep reading each other's books. :-)

No need to get super analytical on your crits (though you can if you want to). For me this is more about motivation to actually write than nitpicking. Of course, any and all comments are welcome -- just stating upfront that you won't have to put a lot of work into critting. Only reading and (hopefully) enjoying the story. :-)

In return I offer the same: Send me your WIP chapter by chapter as you're writing, and I will encourage, cheer you on, ask for more, and offer whatever level of critique you want to be/are comfortable with receiving. I'm open to reading any genre in return except erotic romance.

My answers to the questions:

1.Name/Pen Name: S.W. Vaughn

2.Genre you write: Psychological thriller

3.Location (If you wish): Central NY (not the city!)

4.Any publishing credits (It's okay if you have none): Loads of them. My main names are S.W. Vaughn and Sonya Bateman

5.Three important qualities you are looking for in a crit buddy: Reasonably prompt response time, moral support, reads and enjoys psychological thrillers

6.Contact info: email me at swvaughn at gmail dot com if interested, please.

Thank you! ]]> GroupUser13204621 Thu, 06 Jul 2023 10:56:51 -0700
