I have heard good things about Slack, but that’s less of a chat place and more accountability for individual projects?
That’s possible, he may not have really understood my question. I don’t know what would work for a writer’s group, though. Discussion is probably the most important thing, but the chat format sometimes is hard to manage, because you wind up with pressure to keep your replies short, and you can’t really put in longer blocks of text. At least, that’s the problem I’ve had– I think Discord is what they were using for the Star Wars Writing Guild or whatever that was called, I popped in a few times and it was lovely but the chatroom thing means it’s just one-liners, and if you’re trying to have a discussion it moves past fast, and if you’re not all there at the same time it’s hard to follow the thread of a conversation and answer it later.

I’ve been looking for an original-writing accountabilibuddy, too. Sigh.
That’s a good name for it, I think i’ve heard that one– that’s really mostly what I need. Otherwise you just write in the dark until futility consumes you and you give up and go post a PWP of whatever the latest fannish hotness is so that someone will have a conversation with you. LOL.
