I recently uploaded a preview of a short story I'm currently working on as a personal project for two reasons: First to get some input on how it was going so far and Second, so i had a sample of my writing for commissions.
I've been wanting to create a secondary flow of income for a while so I had a separate way to support the artwork I like to get and, seeing as I'm no good at all with drawing myself, this is the best way of doing it. I've got a few more things to pin down before I'm ready to take these but I want to see who all is interested. So here's what I have for available commission options:
Copy Editing - Pretty cut and dry. I will review your paper/story/other document for basic grammar and spelling. As this takes little to no time at all for me and really doesn't involve discussing any changes for the work, I figured $1.00 per page is a more than fair asking price.
Standard Editing - This one is a little more involved. Not only will you get the copy editing, but I can look over the work for context and consistency as well as provide input. As this will involve more time and deeper digging into the work, the pricing on this is negotiable but starts at $1/page and goes up depending on what all you want me to do.
Story Commissions - You provide me with characters, a general theme, and desired length and I will write out a story for them. I will create a form for these just so I can organize it better and will work close with you during the writing process to make sure it's going the way you'd like. I'm willing to write most themes so what I won't write are: Cub in adult situation, scat/watersports/vomit, Rape/non-consenting situations. There are admittedly some fetishes out there that I am not familiar with so if you want somethign along those lines I may be bugging you a little more for feedback as I go. I'm starting these off at $5/page of 12pt Times Roman font.
I'll be starting with a small number of slots on these and won't open new ones until they're completed. I've seen far too many artists get burned for taking on too big of a case load and it won't be any better for me. Payments for all commissions will be invoiced upfront via paypal but the invoice will not be sent until I'm ready to start yours. This way, if something comes up and I can't start on your commission, you don't get burned.
I will be opening this within the week so if you're interested, comment below so I can alert you when these go live. Also, any input or suggestions on these commissions and their pricing is much appreciated.

I think that's an very clever idea jax it should work I have some advice keep your story costs at an fair price

I hope it does. And I plan to keep it at a fair price but given the quality in the sample do you think $5/page is reasonable or should it be higher/lower?

lionmane
~lionmane
well I think it can be at least say $6 or $7 that seems very reasonable jax since its not to high or not to low an price

Jaxedge
~jaxedge
OP
$6-7 May be a better pricing once I knock out a few and see how they go. I wanted to start low because I'm not sure how the workload will go with someone else's characters and theme. But hopefully it'll be like my personal stories and flow nicely once I get in the groove.

I see jax put place an limit on how many story's you take on I advice taking just 2 story's at an time any more then that and you risk burning out your muse

Jaxedge

OP
lol, seems like we're on the same wavelength there. I started off with only 2 slots for that exact reason.
