just someone to whom i can spew out ideas whenever they come, no matter how completely ridiculous and unrealistic and outside of the bounds of good storytelling... then i need you to tell me how to take my crap ideas and turn them into something more productive. i just need a sounding board with more than just an opinion, rather someone who is interested in helping me progress. any takers?
I might be interested. I enjoy tossing ideas and talking about the hundreds of storytelling rules I picked up while wasting my life rummaging through internet. And I also have an over-the-top novel planned, so we might both benefit.
My novel has a post-apocalyptic setting, so I might be able to help. My approach to feedback is here... https://www.writingforums.org/threads/alpha-and-beta-readers.171587/ but I'd be happy to comment on whatever specific thing you're working on.
