worked well. But if you have a third partition that both OSes can

I've decided the ability to write to each from each is unnecessary.
It is sufficient to be able to read each, so long as your system
is sufficiently fast and has enough storage. Just make a copy.
Plus this way you have some data you *can't* screw up from the other,
so you wind up with a backup copy.
If you have limited or slow disk storage, then making a copy would be
a problem. I haven't found anything *I* do which requires shared
writes.
