Commissioned work

[Handsomehim]

Hello all. How would I go about finding an author here who is open to commissioned work? Thanks.

Again? Seriously?

Start with a coherent brief that does not keep changing.

Hello all. How would I go about finding an author here who is open to commissioned work? Thanks.

I think posting in Story Ideas, as you've done, is the right thing to do. I would also click around the bios of some of the successful, popular authors here to see if any of them take commissions.

No reason to be rude. I just asked a question. Nothing has changed. Happy new year.

No reason to be rude.

You think that was rude? Oh boy!

I just asked a question.

Yes, the same question you asked two days ago. And I gave you a reasonable answer … again.

Nothing has changed.

Apart from what you wanted … three times, by my count.

As I suggested in one of your other threads, put together a brief and submit it specifically to writers whose work you enjoy. Ask them if they are interested.

Some here will write solely for money, but most of us want to be inspired to write. You'd need to provide that inspiration, so have a good answer to the "why are you asking me?" question. We happily write for free, so it might be harder than you think to tempt us with money.
