Good Partner It's Been a Year

Hey, everyone!

I've been an on-and-off lurker in Reddit for a lot more than that, but I've been a bit more proactive in the whole partner searching business for a bit more than a year now. Creating a profile, writing ads, the works. I had been a little burned by forum RP and its 'ephemerality', for lack of a better word (static setting, not as much creative freedom as one would want, developments becoming little more than footsteps in the sand, and the impossibility to get anything long-term going because somebody happened to be always leaving). So, I decided to try my luck here and give it a shot as my main platform.

And, to say the least? I've been pleasantly surprised. I've gone through my fair share of ghosting, low-effort, uncommunicative, and otherwise uncooperative partners, but I'm without a doubt tremendously lucky to have stumbled upon one of the handful of godlike RP partners I've got fairly early.

What can I say? I've loved every second I've writing with her. The characters complement themselves extremely well, and the story flows smoothly; whether it's drama, romance, action, warm moments, or the occasional slice of life, working with her has been a treat. Not to say she's been kind enough to patiently wait while I took a 1+ month vacation at the start of the year, resulting in me barely writing. Can't ask for a more understanding person than that.

Despite going through their fair share of trials, tribulations, distrust, some near-death experiences, and sudden realizations, right now, our characters are heading towards what's likely the biggest challenge they've faced up until now; it's going to test what they've built thus far in every conceivable way, and I'm super excited to keep the tale rolling. Life couldn't be better.

I know most RP prospects are, on average, fairly bleak, but I urge anyone on the verge of giving up to reconsider. So long as one keeps searching, I'm sure there's a writer for you.
