Accountability Partners

Want to have an accountability partner? Here's what that involves: 

• Checking in at least once a week to see where you're both at with your writing  (just during the month of July)

• Sending supportive, encouraging emails that aren't critical of your partner, but are constructive if needed 

• Checking in via whatever method is best for the two of you - email, Zoom, phone, etc. It's up to you and your partner how this will work best for you.
