My writing partner and I have been collaborating on articles for three years and lately we've been splitting bylines based on who did more work but we're both keeping score differently and neither of us wants to bring it up because we're afraid it will sound petty.

More people experience this than they realize.
Two collaborators are avoiding a fundamental conversation about recognition and fairness because they fear damaging their creative partnership.
