    I find myself in a spot where I have periods of time interspersed between chaos, and was thinking I might write some select articles. I'm a native English speaker, and have done some writing. I also put some thought into what I write. Here's the rub though: I can not promise how fast I can get things done. For example, I was asked to do some writing on the subject of how to start an arcade website recently. A couple segments were written in one day, one took a month due to my situation. This means if you have a deadline of an hour from now, I can't help you.

    Here's the way I'm willing to work it.
    1) You tell me what you want written about, with enough details of course, and I'll decide whether it's a subject I can work with or not. It might take me a day to get back with you because I don't haunt DP all day. If I decide to do it, I will get it done as soon as I can.

    2) It might take a day, it might take a week(or more), depending on the chaos here, the amount of research I need to do, the amount of thought needed, etc. The more research, the more thought, the longer it takes, and responsibilities offline will take priority. If you have a distinct deadline, you're probably better off finding somebody else. Sorry, but it gets to hectic here for me to make such guarantees.

    3) I do not make promises about how many words are in it. I can aim for it, but I put more thought into what I'm writing than into a specific word count.

    4) When finished, I will submit the article to you and you decide what it's worth to you. What you think it's worth is what you're going to pay. You don't decide until you see the finished product. If I like the compensation, we might do more business in the future. If I don't like it, we won't, and we can still part friends. So if you like it and want me to do more, be fair. If you're not, it won't be happening. Money transfers will be handled by Paypal only.

    5) I will only take on one thing at a time. If I agree to do something for somebody else before you, I give them priority. If I find myself with more time, I may decide to take on more, but I try to make it first come, first served. If I get multiple requests for things requiring deep thought or loads of research, they might not get done in that order depending on which requires what research or thought.

    6) If at anytime things get too crunched at my end, I may have to quit altogether.

    I will be up front and honest and tell you that there are some subjects that I will not be interested in. Entertainment issues lead that list. I'm not a gamer, and I don't give a rat's backside as to who got booted off American Piddle. I also have some very strong opinions about such things as politics, social issues, and the financial realm.

    If what you want is a product review, such as a book, you will need to supply it and it will take time. I usually use something before I give an honest opinion.

    If you already have something you want written, facts all laid out, outline done up, then you will have to supply all of the needed info, and some kind of specifics as to what you want. I can re write your own articles if needed, but they must be your own. I will not re write articles that are from another site.

    Now if this is something that you might be interested in having me do, let me know. You can tell me here, or send me a PM. I'd prefer here though so that if there is something I'm not interested in, I can say no to it once instead of multiple times. But if it's something that you prefer to keep under wraps for now, I can hang with a PM.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    Hey brendgard,

    This is Eddie from the Deepwater project that you helped test. I have a media platform that you could write for at gloomwire.com

    I'm not sure what subjects you want to write about. The site has some niche based categories that mostly fit into the strange genre.

    Right now the site has two ways for people to write. The first is an open blog where people can post almost anything. The second, is a writers page that allows more options like thumbnails, embedded documents, youtube videos, ect.

    The site is currently only getting a few hundred views a month, so I don't have a way to pay for writers right now. Maybe we could do a trade, where I let you promote your book. I think with the aliens, you could spin a nice promotion article. Otherwise, we are looking for investors, if you wanted to infrequently write as an intern, we might be able to someday offer you compensation.

    If your interested, contact me through any of the sites.

    Hey there, didn't even know you was on DP lol. Interesting site. I will give some thought to what I could write about for your site. If you have any ideas of things you'd like written about pass them along as well. Think we can come up with something.

    Thanks
