I thought of that but it would bring more work to the other writer and that's not fair to her. Thank you! I guess I'll have to find someone who's willing to do more work that she would have to do.
I'm sure it won't be much of a problem to someone. It's their native language so it's not hard for them to correct any awkward English or grammar/spelling mistakes.
English isn't my native language either and I used to be really insecure because I sometimes struggle with words too. But I realize that every chapter I write is an opportunity to improve both my English and my writing skills.
Hey, you could try and write the chapter in your own language first and then translate it because it's always easier to word things in your own language. I do that when I'm lost, I write the chapter in Dutch and translate it and it comes out just the way I want and mostly the translated version looks way better.
I also don't think this challenge is some sort of contest between two authors. It's ok when readers can see that you wrote, for example, the first chapter. You can see it as a way to improve your English. You have no idea how many people on this board think it's awesome we write in a language other than our own, I've had my share of compliments lol.
You could see this challenge as a challenge to yourself to write with someone who has English as a native language. You could learn a lot from the person you're collabing with. I sure hope I will.
Also, I see this challenge as an opportunity to see whether collabing is my thing or not. Maybe you find someone you will be collabing with multiple times in the future.
My point is, don't be discouraged by the fact English isn't your first language. Just go for it!
*End of pep talk lol*
PS. if the person you're collabing with doesn't really feel like helping you out for whatever reason (but I don't think that'll happen), you can also turn to me. I'm pretty good at correcting English grammar and spelling mistakes, if I may say so myself LOL *no ego*
