Gauging Interest: Writing Commissions · 7:50am Nov 11th, 2023
Hello, my lovely readers. How you all doing?
I've got a question I'd like to ask you all, and am tagging Phoenix as it's by far my most read story. One of the things that's been interfering in my ability to write Phoenix has been job-related issues. I've been out of work for a while for health reasons, and have been consistently searching for said work. While prospects have been poor, my finances have begun to dwindle, and as such I'm considering something I previously was uncertain I'd ever be willing to do.
And that is opening up writing commissions. I'm not sure yet what sort of rules or content I would or would not be willing to write. These would be for short stories, likely no more than 30K words maximum, and likely would be focused primarily on safe for work content, or at least content at a Teen rating level. Mature content, I may be willing to work with, albeit with some severe restrictions. OCs would be fine, with subject matter for SFW content being pretty open.
That said, I'd like to gauge interest in the idea. How many of you out there would like to commission a story from me? I can promise a fairly quick turnaround, communication on clarity of story content and, within reason, revisions. I would also be willing to take on several at once, and keep a tight schedule so that you get what you paid for. Not sure about pricing just yet, but I'm thinking something fairly simple, word count tiers plus a few extras, things along those lines. I have multiple channels for communication though my preference is for Discord.
Please feel free to let me know, and if it seems like there is sufficient interest I'll open up the field. And if you're not interested, please let me know too. I can promise it will not interfere with my ability to finish either Phoenix or On Harmony's Shores.
Thank you, my lovely readers, and have a wonderful day.
I would love to see open commissions from you, you have done some amazing stories so far, and possibly doing some commission ideas from others would be interesting to see, and to see if you are very interested on what story ideas each person has in mind
I'm in the midst of a tight-wallet period myself, so I'm just going to be waiting for On Harmony's Shores to return.
I will show interest. Just wait until mid-December to start clarifying details. Moving from West Texas to Las Vegas beginning December. That's consuming my attention now.
Now to start thinking on what...
I would like to but I don’t have any way to pay money online

Thank you both very much for your interest. I've been hearing from a couple of other sources about interest as well, so I think I might go ahead and try to open commissions at some point in the near future.

You’re welcome, Dewdrop
Depending on how the transactions go (and depending if i can afford it) I already have my commission in mind I would like to summit
Is it possible to pay you to teach me the ways of Danganronpa writing? Like I can come up with the ideas and general outline but terrible with the writing section itself.
Also am I allowed to wtite a fanfic based of In Harmony's Wake?

I'm not sure that I can really teach you the ways of writing Danganronpa. I learned by reading other stories, by paying attention to mysteries in various media, spending lots of time getting to know the characters I was working with, and thinking through the kind of mysteries that I might want. I can tell you I started with the entire mystery and worked my way backwards to distributing clues, hints, and the like. At the same time there was always a level of constant improvisation going on.
As for recursive fanfiction, I will admit I would prefer to see a sample of such writing before giving a go-ahead, especially as JCarp and I are writing a sequel.

Haven't really decided on the concept except basing it off the various different potential cases throughout chapters two through five.
Also, am I missing any potential death order lists
