Hello there, I am looking for reliable writers on a number of diverse topics. I am particularly looking for people who can stick to deadlines, communicate properly, and listen to instructions. If you don't think you can do any of these then please don't respond. The articles I need are generally all about the same topic. So if I say I want 15 articles on Blue Toasters, for example, then I would expect 15 articles all about Blue Toasters. They can all be on different aspects of Blue Toasters: why they're better than red toasters, how they work, what else they can be used for, why bread toasted in a blue toaster is good for you... etc. etc.. The articles will be between 150 and 300 words in length, depending on what project you are helping me on. I agree, this sounds easy, but apparently it isn't. Above all you need to be able to stick to deadlines. One thing about DP that really frustrates me is that people (naturally there are some very notable exceptions!) don't appear to believe that deadlines are important. They are! If you miss deadlines without explanation then I'm afraid we can't work together. I will not pay for your articles upfront. To start with we will go with 2 or 3 articles, then slowly move up to greater volumes as our mutual trust increases. At the moment I need around 100 articles per week on an ongoing basis and I'm struggling to get these with the writers I've got. I like talking to people over the telephone (or Skype), not because I'm a nice, friendly guy (I am) but because I like to get things done. If you're comfortable with this then please make a point of saying so in your PM. Like I say, I need people who can stick to deadlines, communicate properly, and listen to instructions. If you reckon you've got what it takes so far, then please remember that I would like to receive a PM from you that starts: I can listen, and I understand what you need. Yes, this is a test to weed out those people who don't read. I would also appreciate a sample of your work. Thank you for your time.
