The difference here is [i]adjusting[/i], not placating. Much like a good musician adapts their form for a collaborative project, a good writer does the same. This isn’t me saying we should accommodate to our peers in some diminutive fashion but adapt to things that better fit the collaboration as a whole. I agree with the sentiment of don’t waste your time in a writing relationship you feel is counterproductive. Understanding where your writing chemistry and preferences lie is more important than pleasing some friend you don’t really enjoy writing with. Being in the same hobby doesn’t mean you enjoy the same things in prose.
