A dude I work with is looking for three writers. The job is big and he is searching for a few people. It basically entails summarizing a bunch of porn reviews - A LOT of porn reviews. A summary is about 350 words and payment is .04 cents a word USD. The total contract needs to be done by September 2006, so go getters are especially welcome. He is on hiatus until June, so I am weeding for him.

For more details please PM and I will give you info and please know I am also weeding the good from the ... in which case I will ask a task to find out if you can deal with it, as it's a very daunting job. CVs not required. ;)

So ... roughly $14/summary. How's payment made and how quickly?

I am not sure he wants to pay thru Paypal anymore as they slapped down on porn exchanges. He will pay money order and cheque and is always good for it, I personally guarentee. He uses epassporte I believe, and its much more immediate. I have been working with him for a year or more and he has never been late on a payment, only mailmen are late. He prefers two week payments like any job, or monthly if you prefer. :)
 
bumping just in case someone missed it, or Imp has more questions. :)

Imp's curious ... but thinks she may already have too much on her plate (assuming the mysterious Jack Winters ever ends up paying her).

Its ok, I know you are, but who the hell is Jack Winters and why did he not pay? :D
 
In summarizing a review what are we talking about Cahrley? Is it like writing a memo to the CEo, where you just give him a basic sketch of the info?

Sorry, Colly, I meant to PM this gig to you before you saw the post. No not really. There are good and bad reviews, and it's kind of more akin to reading a book review and then giving a summary of a book review in fewer and your own words. :)
