A loud dull crashing sound echoes from the dumpster area. He sound of someone falling over kicking something that sounds like the dumpster jacuzzi.
A string of colourful expletives and the back door crashes open with a think.
Staggers in through the back door, hair standing on end, face covered in mud and clothes looking scruffy.
Ahem. I seem to be a little late today. Had a small ccrash landing with the broom, let that be a lesson to you folks never fly without your leather gloves, your proper polarised shades or under the influence of chocolate covered coffee beans.
Ye gods what is that smell? Oh it's me, right bette go jump in the dumpster jacuzzi to clean up.
Hold the phone for a moment.
Stomps off through the back door and a loud splash can be heard and more expletives.
A sudden figure stomps back in holding a bottle of Jamesons like a banner.
Which one of you lot left this in the jacuzzi? I nearly impaled myself on it when I jumped in. What if Tawney had been hurt taking her morning dip.
Oh you wild degenerates and your party games.
Since I'm mostly clean and I'm here I suppose it's time to tend bar.
Good heavens what a day.

Struts into the bar, blowing kisses as she gets to the bar.
Empties Big Bertha, keeping the sludge for Carl and the caffeine junkies. Refills with some Hawaiian roast beans, and lots of mountain fresh water.
Places a soft kiss on BB, and polishes her nozzle for being a good...coffee maker.
Cleans out the big kettle and refills it, setting it to boil.
Switches the sign from The Witch is OUT to IN.
Wiggles fingers and summons a dryad to get the washing up done, while a second whirls round the room driving all the rubbish into a pile, before feeding it to an earth elemental.
Good morning my drunken animals, I hope life is going well for you all.
Bill I didn't think my singing was so bad you'd mistake it for an industrial crusher. A strangled cat perhaps but I'm no musician,

Blows a kiss to BB and wipes down the bar one last time.

Slips out from behind the bar and blows a kiss to Bill
G'note folks time for this Witch to commune with the Moon, to ask for the gift of another dawn, to ask for us all to have a safe night, and many wonderful dreams.
If you hear what sounds like a cat being strangled rather ineptly from the back garden it's just me singing to Luna.
Ear plugs are on the bar.
Skald out!

Always good to start the day shooting spammers like grouse.
Now where's the hip flask.

Not sure if you got much response to this but here's my suggestion.
Write up a story even if it's a little clunky it gives your writing partner an idea of how much editing you're going to need.
Also be sure to flag up what categories you want to write in.
Some people dont mind but some really dont like to work in some categories.
I also recommend that of you're looking for a writing partner pop into Rumps bar in the pub forum. Theres lots of writers in there and it's possible some of them might be willing to work with you especially once they get to know you better.
Writing your own work is tricky, converting someone else's vision into words is a lot harder and both parties really need to have great communication and rapport.
That's just me and YMMV.
Toodles.

No, I highly recommend you not put tags into chapters that dont have them.
Think of it this way if you put a tag for in chapter 1 and there isn't a sign of it I'm going to read that chapter looking for the tag and get pissed at you for not including any.
You can put the element in the reader note at the top of the chapter when it applies. Then I can skip it if I dont want it.

Warning may speak high level geek if approached. You have been warned.
Do not ask about fixing your iPhone, watching it be thrown out a window under a road compactor often causes offence.

My spare laptop got cranky and needs to be wiped for a fresh win 10 install. So if you hear any unusual swear words it's just me.

G'note folks time for this Witch to commune with the Moon, to ask for the gift of another dawn, to ask for us all to have a safe night, and many wonderful dreams. To those who must work through it, may your shift be a gentle one and you return home safely.
To those who are worried, I will pray for your worries to be soothed. For those who mourn, I shall pray for a spirit of comfort to be sent to you.
To those of you who wrestle with a fickle muse (Not that I'm including my infuriating one in that proud company) I shall pray that a beautiful bolt of inspiration strikes you.
Remember we are all fragile beings and these are incredibly stressful times. Be kind to yourself and to others, sometimes a kind word is all we need to take another step and make it through a difficult day.

Bill When the plants start to flower I am going to be doped up the eyeballs on antihistamine. The joys of being allergic.
Kimmi My Eastern Sister always recommends when you're communing with nature to put your bare feet on the earth, close your eyes, turn your face to the sun, raise your arms to shoulder height and spread your fingers wide. That for a moment stop thinking about lists, plans and people. Be part of the natural rhythm. Feel the sun warm your skin, the wind stir your hair, the earth under your feet. That all things are as they should be, and you are part of that great natural cycle.
Elyse you make it sound as though being needy is a bad thing, some people train to get into that emotional state so they crave to be near their Dominant. Also don't doubt the amount of support you have here, we're all cheering you on, wanting to see you achieve all your goals my dear.

Ok I'm definitely blocked from mailing you, so the lock is on.
Some of the changes can take 24 hours to apply so maybe this person mailed you during this window.
Failing that you can try blocking them for a few days and then remove it.
Chatterbox Blonde- Rumps Mystical Bartender
some of the changes take a while to apply its possible this change hasn't been processed yet.
I'm not a friend of yours so I can try and send you a message to double check the lock is on.
I read a lot on here and am bad with names too
And I currently have trouble remembering what I had for breakfast, so please forgive my forgetfulness.
