An ideal critique partner for me would be someone who strives to have a professional writing career and understands the publishing business (or is willing to learn!), but isn’t too uptight about it. A fine sense of humour and realistic outlook would be appreciated.
What I need help with most is brainstorming.
Fantasy, mystery, comedy of manners, and adventure — always historical (I favourize the Regency, Victorian, and Edwardian eras, but plan to explore the Tudor period and yet-unspecified ancient civilizations at some point).
Hardcore space science fiction is not for me due to my aversion to space/futuristic settings.

I will read almost any genre as long as the story doesn't drag. I adore gothic historicals with castles, asylums, and dark omens.
It absolutely does make a difference to me whether ' or ’ is used, but I’m going to try to not be such a pain in the backside about it. Promise.
