Hello there!
I go by Kleio; I’m 25 years old, and I have been writing on and off for the last 10+ years of my life.
I’m really in the mood to get a historical romance/character drama going.
You can find below some basic info on plots I’m interested in. However, I find the best stories are the formed with collaboration, so if any of this sounds interesting to you — shoot me a message and I’ll shower you with more details.
Age of Sail — Our characters grew up together in the English countryside: a gentry boy (your character) and a low-class girl (my character), who becomes a housemaid at his family’s Estate. In their teen years, an incident occurs and the girl runs off – never to return again. Ten years later, the boy is now a high-ranking officer in the Royal Navy, tasked with stamping out the threat of Piracy; what he doesn’t know is that she is one of them. I've been playing around with the idea of doing this roleplay in volumes; establishing their relationship and the "incident", before moving on to them reuniting years later.
Regency Era — looking to explore the following tropes: enemies to lovers, love triangles, forbidden love, arranged marriages/fake relationships, and so much more.
Medieval Fantasy — would love to do something inspired by GoT/HotD, rife with political scandal and intrigue. Can be strictly medieval or could also include fantasy elements. I do have a Regency fantasy idea I’d love to try as well.
While I am looking to write principally from a female perspective, I am a huge fan of developing a wide cast of characters (some more prominent in the story than others), and some of the voices I pick up will undoubtedly be male. I’d prefer to write opposite someone with a similar outlook on this as myself, because I find it fosters a lot of richness and creative potential in the story. With that said, “doubling” in the traditional sense is, therefore, a possibility!
Now, a bit more about me as a writer and what I’m looking for in a partner — I love character driven stories, rife with emotional conflict and drama. I tend to write in the multi-para/novella style, but I try to tailor my response length to the situation (smaller replies when partaking in fast paced dialogue), but sometimes I do get carried away. Typically, my post length is anywhere from 400-2k+ words, but I never expect anyone to match my length. As long as you’re pushing the story forward, and can put up with the occasional tangent from me, that’s all I care about. I also prefer to write via email threads or Google Docs — something of that nature. Anything with character/word limits doesn’t really jive with me.
In terms of availability — generally, I try to shoot for at least 1 response per week. I am a huge proponent of the “real life first” model of roleplaying. This is a story I would like to invest in over the long-term, and sometimes life just gets in the way. Real life always comes first, and I will never hound you for a response. Burn out is a real thing, and I’d like to avoid putting undue pressure on my fellow collaborator.
Oh! Before I forget — I am only interested in writing with people 20 or older.
I think that’s all from me! Feel free to drop me a line with a writing sample (ptolemaiic@gmail.com) if any of this piques your interest. I’ll send you a sample of my own, and then we can get to plotting!
Thank you for your time! 💖
