Write you a story!
10
Tell me what you want to read about, and I'll write you a short story. (1000-10000 words, negotiable.)
Maybe you daydream a lot, spend a lot of time in fantasy-land. If you're willing to share it, perhaps I can write it and give you a concrete version.
Maybe you want to read something you can't find in mainstream stories. Maybe you have a soft spot for fluff, or angst, or romance, or action scenes, or any number of other things. Maybe you have a guilty pleasure. Maybe reading is cathartic for you.
Maybe you have a friend who could use something uplifting.
Maybe you have a dark mind and want something with a lil' fighting or violence.
I am open-minded and willing to write most manner of subjects. You can give me details on setting and characters if you'd like, but naturally, I'm not a mind-reader so all of it will be subject to some creative liberty. :)
Things I will not write:
Anything CONDONING the harm of animals or children.
Advertisements, articles, profiles, etc. Fiction only.
Things I will write, assuming it doesn't go against Simbi's terms:
Anything referenced in the above description of my service.
1st person and/or 3rd person.
Moderate violence.
Explicit themes negotiable.
When it comes to characters and/or themes, I will not discriminate based on any personal characteristics, race, gender, sexual orientation, etc. LGBT friendly.
Please get in touch if you want more details or have any questions!
Training & Qualifications
Writing is, for better or worse, one of those fields that doesn't have the typical gateway. You don't need a degree to get something published. You don't even need proof of experience. You just need to have a good story. Writing speaks for itself.
As such, I got my B.A. in psychology. Not only was it something that interested me, but I decided it could help me be a better writer. Psychology is all about the human condition, and the cornerstones of good stories are good characters. I also took several creative writing and journalism courses.
But that's really no certification for writing ability, is it? If there's a way, I will put up some short samples. I will also provide you samples on request if you'd like.
I'm 25 and have been writing since I was 11. I've never stopped for more than a few months. In 2014 I got serious about my craft and decided I wanted to DO something with it. Since then I've written and partly revised 3 out of a series of 5 novels, each at about 130k words. I've written over 1 million words total. I'm still learning every day, but I'd hope I've gained some experience through the amount of time and energy spent writing so far.
