Good luck! May your muse be generous.

I have to second that it has to be the "right" person. I've only had two people ever that I trusted to truly critique my work without changing my voice, and only one of those turned into a lasting friendship and work relationship. The only one I could ever imagine writing with. And alas, it's not because we agree on everything. We don't. It's because we both know our strengths and weaknesses and they are pretty much opposite... so what I'm not good at, she is, and vice versa.

Yet, I am now, with my best friend. But as you say, it only works because we bring different strengths to the table and we trust in each others abilities.

It started with friendship with Holmes and me, but it's only a successful partnership because we have all of the other factors in place. Those factors can exist without the friendship.

But I can see how that might end the friendship. Thanks for sharing your insight on how to make a writing partnership work.

It's good that you know that about yourself. It will save you many heartaches.

It's a terrible flaw but I'm one of those people who always thinks they're right (my whole family is. You can imagine what Christmas is like). If you're up for it though, this all sounds like great advice.
