(Full) Writer & Editor: Free Projects Preferred
Posted: Sun Oct 26, 2014 8:37 pm
Update (11/6/2014):
I am currently satisfied with my workload, so inquires about large projects are no longer accepted. Smaller subjects (such as premises, drafts, or specific advice) are free game.
About Yours Truly:
I'm currently an undergraduate English Literature student, looking to write creatively for someone other than myself or my professors. My professional/academic experience includes working at my university's literary journal and writing center, along with minor forays into editing and writing for online communities. I specialize in helping out foreign language speakers (particularly those whose first language is Chinese).
Rules of Engagement:
-I greatly prefer free projects to commercial ones and unpaid work to paid. I'd like to help out those developers who are on a tight budget or with no pocket money to spend on their visual novel.
- I also prefer visual novels less attached to the traditional Japanese influences when given a choice. This doesn't mean that I won't sign onto your project if it's a dating sim set at a high school in Tokyo, just that I might want more detail on characters or themes.
-I only accept work-in-progress visual novels. To explain further, I require some evidence of planning or asset creation (such as art, music, writing, etc.) before I can offer you my services. This is merely a precaution and may be waived in some cases. If you are currently in the idea stages of developing your visual novel, you are still welcome to contact me but are not guaranteed any formal help.
-Please provide me with an outline of your game's story, including any potential specialized or explicit content. (Explicit content includes: violence, gore, sexual situations, abuse, language, etcetera. Specialized content includes: unusual settings [such as fantasy or non-Western countries], unusual characters [such as species other than human], etcetera.)
-I can only accept projects who I feel I am up to the task for. If I'm weak in areas that are important to your project or if I don't have the necessary background/experience, I will have to decline. However, this only applies to scriptwriting.
Writing Samples:
A selection of my writing samples can be seen in this Google Docs folder. Please note that they are view-only but are available for commenting. If you have any trouble viewing my samples, please contact me with your preferred file format and the document giving you trouble. Also, feel free to request additional samples in your preferred genre and I'll scrounge up any decent work that fits.
Contact Information:
Contact through Lemmasoft's private messaging system is preferred, but you are welcome to email me at slambread@gmail.com or through my tumblr (linked next to my avatar) for short messages/inquiries.
Final Notes:
If this post seemed intimidating or pretentious, I apologize. By my great-grandfather's extraneous third nipple, I meant no such thing.
