[M4F] Looking for intelligent invested partner for something long-term

Hello there! Thanks for taking at what I'm hoping for.

I'll start with a few musts from my side before telling you what I'm offering you.

• You must be 18+.
• I'm an older man, by internet standards, so you must be okay with writing/speaking to someone that's a bit older.
• Be open to getting to know each other. If a phrase like "Hi, how are you? What's your name?" terrifies you and immediately puts up a wall wanting you to give me a fake online name, I'm not the partner for you. I'm looking for a genuine real connection with a human being.
• I love to write and explore new ideas with my partner. Please be open to talking things out. I love to hear new ideas and appreciate having mine heard too; even if we disagree about certain things, we're both adults here... let's have a conversation about them and move onto the next idea if we dislike something!
• NO GHOSTING. Have the common courtesy to talk things out with me if you think that things aren't working well. This is directly in line with #2. I'm a human being. You don't just push the delete key on a human being, have some respect!

Okay... if you're still here, here's what I'm offering!

• Friendship/partnership and respect. I'm a great conversationalist and enjoy talking about any and all subjects.
• An author. I've been writing for many years and always have a personal project on the go, along with a RP. I enjoy talking about all sorts of writing!
• I can write in 1st, 2nd or 3rd person. I tend to lean toward 1st for a more intimate piece and 3rd for a piece that leads into more than one character. (most people don't even know what 2nd is so I won't mention anything more about it, but know it is available)
• I'm extremely literate and am happy to write with any skill level. If you want help learning how to be a better writer don't hesitate to ask... we're all learning, including me!
• Romance is a must with me, so you can expect it in all stories I write. I expect that anything is a go, including NSFW.
• I like mixing multiple genre's together. I especially love original creations, world building, SOL, sci-fi, fantasy........ well really... let's be honest... I'll write anything!!!

I hope you've made it this far and are still interested! I look forward to hearing from you. Please say hello and introduce yourself if you've found your way to the end of my preferences.
