Finding the right partner, whether creative, life or business, can be a difficult endeavour. Very few of the people that we interact with on a regular basis, no matter how much we like them, are actually suitable partnership material. Anyone who has been in a relationship can attest to this. It can be difficult to escape the inevitable irritation that comes with knowing someone too well. Potential partners, who seem perfectly compatible at the beginning, end up being too much like us or too different (or occasionally psychotic). For a partnership to work, it is vital to sustain an attitude of mutual respect , trust and compromise.

Excellent post! I love the Rolling Stones aspect. You are 100 percent correct. A partnership must be a union which stands the test of time. I think back on friendships, love interests, roommates etc. which seemed so strong at the inception only to falter. It's like a great marriage or in your example like Mick and Keith, you need the parties to come together and build on mutaual strengths and goals.
Fabulous article...though I will probably never have to worry about it. My one-person writing business will probably remain one-person until doomsday!

I understand what you mean about remaining solo as I suppose writing is more often a solitary pursuit.
Thank you so much, Yoni.
