Third buddy set will be @izzy-is-officially-on-hiatus ( @moonkitti- ) and @InsertLifeHere!
I recommend you pm each other to work out the details, and I'll remind you both of a couple rules:

  • Realize that our writing buddy is human, and has obligations outside of Notebook. However you decide to work together, try to avoid placing a huge workload on your pal!
  • If you do have trouble with your buddy, or just find the matchmaker machine messed up and you two aren't a good pair, never fear, come back and we'll get you re-assigned. There's a lot of fish in the sea, so don't worry at all.
  • Similarly, any arguments should be fielded back to this thread, so you can get help sorting it out. Don't give up right away though! Try to be reasonable and polite to your buddy, and expect the same from them. Keep your cool, and we'll get you sorted out.
  • If you need to back out, cut your buddy off from your hip, dive overboard or go AFK AWOL, LET YOUR BUD KNOW!!! That way they know to wait for you, or find a new pal. This is a SUPER low commitment deal, so no one's going to hold it against you if you've gotta back out! Communication is key, y'all.
  • Try to at least be active for your buddy at a minimum of what you two have agreed on. If you're critiquing each other once a week, try to show up. If your talking every day, try to show up. If you can't, try to give warning and reschedule if you can.

Have fun you two!! I recommend you look through each others forms before you get started!
Insert, Izzy's gone rightnow, but you can still pm her and she'll be back at a certain point! I'll mention it to her other account as well, just so she knows. Also, here are some important dates for her:

  • Won't be available from 10am-3pm PST on May 9th and June 13th of this year
  • And until May 10th, every Saturday, I'll be at a youth symphony rehearsal from 10am to 12.30pm
  • I've got horse lessons from 3 to around 5 (Actually they start at 4.15 but it takes around a half hour to get there so) and I may not get home until around 8
  • There's a school trip which I'm attending, shortly after I get out of school to Japan, and it will last from June 26th, to July 10th.
  • And until April 28th, every Tuesday, I've got another youth symphony rehearsal from 5 to around 8.
  • Aaaaaand I haven't even gotten to the concerts: May 3rd, 3pm (Dress rehearsal the 1st, 5.30-8pm), February 9th, 6pm (DR Feb. 7th, 4.30-6.30pm), March 22nd, 11-3pm, and finally, May 10th, unknown time to 3pm
  • I think that should be it for now, but I'll be sure to let you guys know if anything else comes up!

@Oakiin

That's all I can do right now, I'll finish this up later today! I hope everyone has a good tie with their buddies :)

@Oakiin

Hey guys! I'll be opening another round in a couple days, so if you keep an eye out, you'll see the thread become open again! Thanks so much for your interest!

@Oakiin

I've got you written down for it! When it opens, I'll ask that you fill out the form again, so they're all in one spot, but I'll let you know when! ^^
