Looking for a writing partner
I'm currently working on a plot outline for a novel/epic poem and im looking for somebody to work with on it, as well as flesh out all the details and such with me. It's a fantasy type story, but not anything like LotR, i'm aiming for more along the lines of The Odyssey. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm probably about 2 thirds of the way done with a plot outline and setting description.

There's nothing potentially proprietary here. How be I move this thread to some more appropriate forum?

If you've done that much alone what is it you need help with, that you are unable to do by yourself?

Is there a particular reason you can't do it yourself?

Maybe he just wants another perspective. If you want to help the guy, then offer some help. Why is everyone posting just to ask the guy why he can't do it himself? Obviously if he felt like he could do it himself, or if he wanted to do it himself, he wouldn't be here looking for a writing partner.

or, he can do it himself.
When people do this, they always make the most cryptic questions and expect people to respond.

Yep, he could do it himself, or he could look for a writing partner. What's it to you? making 2,300+ posts in a month, though I'm sure they're all full of great, quality work, doesn't necessarily make you an expert on writing, or put you in a position to tell this guy whether or not he should write it himself or not.
Many great authors have worked with partners.

Maybe he's dead and he's a ghost looking for a purpose.
