Also, you can't do this in the description, I don't think, but in case you don't know how to tag your writing partner, mouse over her handle (the name you see) and you will see her username. There are common ways to tag her, but since I don't know her username, I'll use yours as an example. Note that all these are using brace (just above brackets), not parentheses.

Also, I saw you only have 1 fan. Just like real writers, fans are important if you want folks to read what you are writing. You can see how many fans you have by going to your portfolio and along the top you will see Portfolio, Reviews, other things, then Community, and finally a down arrow. Click that and Fans should appear. Click that and you can see who has fanned you and who you have fanned.
Fans are important because unless people are on the Community Newsfeed, which most folks aren't, they aren't going to see your posts in your Notebook (which appear on the Newsfeed). When you click Newsfeed on the left, you are taken to the default, your Personal Newsfeed. But along the top-ish part of that you will see "View the Community Newsfeed." Click that and you'll see what everyone is posting, not just the people you have fanned. I recommend everyone go to the Community Newsfeed because there are so many interesting people and exciting activities, etc. It's a great place to meet folks. Just scroll along and comment, Like, etc. as you feel lead. As you interact with folks, participate in activities, etc., you'll start making friends who will usually turn into fans.
