Hello, potential partner, and thanks for choosing to take a look at my interest check! I’m going to try to keep this as brief as possible, but I do feel there are some things I need to establish before you inquire about an RP with me.
First off, I have been a solid RPer for upwards of seven years. I consider myself a seasoned roleplayer. I know the rules, the etiquette, and the expected propriety. I expect you to know them as well. That being said, I am not, by any stretch of the word, an austere person. I do this for fun, and I want it to be fun for others as well. Being strict and uptight does not coincide with a good time, does it? I simply don’t want to be correcting you all the time because you are oblivious or are just plain ignoring the fundamental rules acknowledged by most roleplayers.
Secondly, I am a college student who is disgustingly neurotic about my grades. I'm the girl who spirals into the depths of depression if I finish out a class with anything lower than an A. Annoying, I know. What that means for you is that I won't always reply every day or even every other day, or sometimes even the day after that.. I'll try, but sometimes I simply have too much work to get done. What that also means is that, as of now, I am looking to take on only one RP. Because of this, I am going to be extremely picky about who I take on and thus am requiring a writing sample from anyone interested in starting up a plot with me. Please do not be offended if I choose not to RP with you. It is not a reflection of your writing capabilities but of how I feel our writing styles would mesh. Good news: Though I am still a college student who is disgustingly obsessed with her grades, I am out of school for the summer! Yay! I still, however, am working full time and am taking an online class (statistics ). I will have more time, but that does not mean I will have a lot of it. A reply every couple of days is all I can promise--and to be honest, it will probably be less at times. I need someone who can roll with the ball, and I also am only going to be looking for a single partner at this time. Because of that, I will be asking for a writing sample so I can be sure my partner is one who fits with me as seamlessly as possible. I will send you one as well so you can do the same!
Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, I consider myself to be an advanced RPer and am requesting that my partners be as well. Advanced to me does not mean that you can vomit a 3,000+ word post out each go (to be honest, post count is of little concern to me). I am mostly looking for quality writing. As for myself, my replies usually range from 500-2000 words, especially in the beginning. Like I mentioned, I’m really not a huge stickler about post length, and won’t mind the occasional short post, so long as it gives me something to work with.
Whew, that was wordy, wasn’t it? If you survived that and still want to talk RPs, it's best to shoot me a PM, as I am not always good about checking on this. I look forward to hearing from you!
