Writing commissions (formally) opening sometime next month!
7 years ago
Figured it was time to bump a newer journal up, and I didn't care about The Cloverfield Paradox enough to write a review as an excuse. (Short review: fabulous director, great actors, terrible script.) So! If you've been reading the descriptions of my last few story submissions, you'll have seen me talk about doing commissions. If you haven't, there ya go. I'll get an ~official~ price sheet and a queue posted up and everything! In the meantime, here's what I'm thinking of doing for offerings.
Quickie: 1000-2000 words; $20
The Usual: 2000-4000 words; $40
Meaty: 4000-6000 words; $85
A Real Thick One: 6000+ words; $80 up front; $.02c a word beyond that (to be quoted & paid before delivery.)
Picture Accompaniment: ~500-1500 words; $15 - Something short for you to slap in the description of a picture in your gallery! You can do that with any of my stories, of course, but this is just a slight discount in case you don't mind it potentially being a bit shorter.
That's all I can really think of. My current process involves just talking to people about their idea, telling them what length it'll be, and quoting them based on that. This should hopefully let people set their expectations ahead of time - I'll try to have examples of each sort of story for reference. I'm not gonna add anyone else to the queue just yet - except for people who've already been messaging me in notes, of course - since I don't know when I'll be starting these again. Busy tricking computers into thinking for a bit. But if you think you might be interested when the time comes, let me know if you think this is a fair way of doing things!
