[18+][Yuri] Seeking talented writer who is familiar with the structure/style of dark, adult Japanese VNs
Posted: Sun Oct 18, 2020 4:13 pm
Hello! My name's Flash and I'm gathering together a team to work on the debut project for an independent VN studio I'm investing in called "Black Lily Society." Our goal is to deliver high-quality, dark, extreme yuri content that blows the socks off of anything currently developed in the West. We have a special focus on taking our cues from the infamously brutal adult Japanese VN industry in terms of story plot, art, and music.
I have spent some time writing a lengthy project summary document providing the details for the project, job requirements, an example story summary, compensation, and the application process. Please visit the link below to view that document:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
I will also provide a 2000ft overview of the project here, so the post doesn't look quite so empty.
The project is a dark, adult yuri project with the major themes of "cyberpunk" and "psychological thriller." It will tell a deep, intricate, and introspective sci-fi story that makes readers question their own humanity, and will contain a variety of extreme content, including torture, non-consensual GxG sex, and gory violence. It will have three distinct endings and will effectively utilize character perspective switching to enhance the mystery and impact of the story. References to media that evoke a similar feel to what is envisioned for this project include Ghost in the Shell, Blade Runner, Ergo Proxy, Madoka Magica, and Wonderful Everyday.
Applicants must be comfortable (or better: enthusiastic about) writing such content, in addition to providing weekly updates to ensure that progress is being made (some flexibility is allowed here, because creativity is hard). Applicants will be required to provide writing samples and conduct a phone interview before being hired. All details are provided in the document linked above.
The hired writer will be compensated at a rate of $0.03 per word. As the expected length of the VN is ~150,000 words (9-12 hours), the writer could expect to be paid around $4,500 for the story. Additionally, $300 will be paid for full character bios, and $500 for a complete summary of each chapter prior to beginning the story. In total, the writer can expect to be paid $5,000 - $6,000 by the end of the project.
If interested, please review the project summary document linked to above and reply either here or via the email provided in the document with your application or any questions you may have. Thank you!
