Title: I will write for Bitcoins. No minimum bid.
Post by: Anonymous on March 03, 2011, 02:47:02 AM
I am willing to write for Bitcoins -- on various subjects. All you have to do is make your request and I will attempt to meet it to the best of my ability. If it meets your requirements, pay what you deem is fair. If it is unsuitable, no payment will be required. Of course, depending on the skill and quantity involved, I may deviate; however, I will remain consistent.

Thank you for your consideration.

I'll label this idea "story 1" so we can have an easy way to keep the stories straight and let others bid for ideas they like.

Write a short story told from the point of view of
Quote
a woman in 5 years telling her husband (who has been in a coma 2004 and just woke up now in 2016)
about what the hell bitcoins are, when she first came across them (2011-16?), who she heard about it from, what bitcoin businesses existed already when she found out, the bitcoin business that is currently (in 2016) the most successful, the greatest humanitarian effort done using bitcoins, and the evilest thing done using bitcoins.

You can replace the subjects in the quote with anything that achieves the same effect as a tool.

edit: add "how the husband will find a job that's right for him based on all the tools that have been invented" to the list

double edit: we need a site like this (http://www.thepoint.com/) in the bitcoin realm to allow a content creator to let people bid on ideas for their next project

Order received. Work is now in progress.

This might turn into a novel. I have a basic plan going.

What I am not going to do is churn out some garbage and allow my name to be on it.

It will be ready when it's ready. : P

I'm looking forward to it.  I just sent you an advance on the novel (.02 bc's), the other half will be sent upon project completion.

I will need article rewrite service. 1000 words article - 5 BTC. Topic - car tires reviews. Sorry, no authorship and need to pass CopyScape (duplicate text search engine). If interested - contact me at pavel@yepcorp.com

Wow, the going rate for a novel is only .04 BTC?  I guess I can forget about my writing career in the world of BTC.....   :P

Frankly, I found it kind of insulting unless .02 BTC is the world to this guy.

I would think it certainly would not be worth your time....

Interesting--I've been working on a short story concept myself, just haven't had the time to finish it yet.  Definitely a more accessible way to engage some of the bitcoin concepts.

Maybe spenvo got some free coins from the faucet and spenvo's willing to give you 80% of them in the end?

Also, do you have a brand established to your name? I'm not aware of it if you do, and spenvo might not be either, so the feeling of "insult" may be a little premature, given that you are not a household name yet?

Regards my offer, you may find a larger audience at the end of the novel if you take short jobs to get your name out there and then release your opus. I'd hate for it to be great only to wither somewhere in a black hole on the internet.

If you don't mind doing so, please send me a PM after you complete a chapter so I should know that you are serious (and that I don't forget about it). You don't have to send me the chapter, just notify me that you completed it.

I have a basic plot written. I have gone through at least a 6-7 so far. I am putting my heart into this.
