Not checking in here. I may post stories because my patrons are nice and like ponies. Otherwise out of the fandom, sorry peeps.

    There's where you go.

    If you don't have money, fair enough. I've been there, done that. If you do and don't care, fuck off.

    The zines are for sale.

    I'll just bump you folks over to twitter for details, but the short version is they're $5 each, $2 USA shipping, $4 international, and I have two pony ones, A Twilight Trio (Unhorsed, Apex, Dreaming of Dragons) and Tender is the Night.

    It exists. :3

    That, my friends, is a zine, or a tiny, handmade book, containing three of my recent stories. Right now I'm working on getting them out to the Patrons, and after that I will be selling them in some way or another.

    Zines! AKA tiny books!

    I never managed to get on the pony book bandwagon. I just... self publishing is hard, okay? :P But zines are at least marginally less hard, I only have to wrestle with Libre Office, not with some printer's completely unfamiliar absolutely everything.

    Any Hades fans out there?

    I do actually have a pony story coming up! (On Patreon on Monday, here on Fimfic on Wednesday! Just a cute little erotica short, but it's one I particularly liked!)

    But I'm also currently in the middle of writing Hades story number four in just the last week, so, uh... On a bit of a roll there!

Writing Commissions Master Post · 6:57pm Aug 11th, 2017

This post should be kept up to date, so feel free to refer back to it later.

I currently only accept commissions through my Patreon. If you absolutely refuse to use Patreon I will consider direct commissions, but I will be charging a premium price. (I.e. more than the Patreon price of $20 per thousand words. Exactly how much is going to depend on how much I feel like writing whatever it is you want me to write at the time, so you'll have to contact me to find out.)

That said, here's some additional information.

Acceptable topics.
I'm willing to discuss anything, including extreme fetishes. I'm a little weak on comedy, my grimdark game is only so-so, and I'm picky about what non-consent and foalcon I'll write. Anything else is probably fair game. The list of things I feel I can do well is pretty long; you can check out my past stories for some idea of what that entails. (It ranges from the fluffiest of g-rated cute fluff to serious hardcore fetish material.) I also write non-pony stories. In fact these days I mostly write non-pony stories. If you want gay romance, I'm your guy.

How the process works.
To get a custom story written, visit the link to Patreon above, select the $20 a month tier, and become a patron. You can then contact me immediately about your story details, and have me start adding a thousand words to your story every month, or you can wait until you've built up enough months/1000 word chunks to be the length of story you want.

If you have a very specific sort of story in mind, please write up an outline detailing everything you'd like to happen. Everything. If you want it there, you must put it in your outline. I mean it. However, if you just want "Twilight Sparkle enjoys assplay" or "What if Rarity secretly hates dresses?" or some other loose idea that I can fill in however I like, that's also fine, I very much enjoy doing that kind of thing! Just pick one or the other. Either you tell me exactly what you want, or you give me creative freedom. You do not get to give me creative freedom and then give me a ton of details you need included.

Please contact me with your details or your general story idea via PM here, Patreon's messaging system, or email (spark.costumes@gmail.com). Please do not send me your story idea via Discord. I've had far, far, far, far too much trouble with story details being lost in the backscroll and forgotten about, questions having to be asked and answered multiple times, and general miscommunication. You can talk to me about commissioning and story ideas through Discord all you like, but when you've decided for certain what you want, I need everything in one message, in one place.

What if I hate my story?
You're hiring an artist, not buying a computer. I do my absolute best to write what you want me to write, and I am happy to make minor edits and do small re-writes and additions, but if you need your satisfaction guaranteed, please just go to the bookstore and buy a book. There are no refunds, except in the case of non-delivery (i.e. I don't write a story at all/I don't write the amount of words you paid for.)

Is this confusing?
Many writers and artists offer commissions this way, but I know that many do not and it may be new to some people. If you find it confusing you are absolutely free to ask any questions you like about how the process works, either in the comments here or via PM. I don't mind!

That does seem a good way to set it all up!

I want to hire you, but most likely in a month or two due to money problems. But when rl lets me I could see myself paying as much as $120 for you to write something for me-once I can think of what I want.

Well, in a few months would probably be best, since right now I'm busybusybusy. :twilightsmile:
