I'm willing to write essays on any topic that I can google. If your task requires me to do more than google, I'll charge an additional 10 BTC per hour for the time I spend not googling/writing, e.g. creating graphics, finding books in a library or doing other offline research. This should be zero for most papers; if it's not I will give you an estimate in advance. [edit: I'm defining a 'page' as 500 words, as this is pretty close to most formats' actual page length.]
Any topic is fair game. Maybe you want a treatise demonstrating that drug policy is detrimental to the state of society as a whole, or maybe you'd just like some lab reports. As long as the info is googlable, I'll find it and write a quality essay. Please note - I do not have access to any private online journals.
Post your job requests here with the following info; if you would like to keep your requests private, you can email me at plato@subvert.me; gpg key
here.
- What I'm writing about: Provide as many details as possible; including any context that will help me google, or recommended sources
- Deadline: I may apply additional fees at my discretion for tight deadlines, if my workload gets heavy
- Desired length: Please mention whether this is a strict maximum, strict minimum, or a suggestion
- Citations: Do you care about citations? What format, and how many?
- Target Audience: Who is going to read this essay?
- Data: If I'm writing a lab report or similar, I will need the pertinent data
- Meta info: Any header info, such as the organization this is being written for
By default I'll send essays as html to preserve formatting across platforms, but I'll send pdf's or any other format upon request. I will typeset essays into LaTeX for a 10% surcharge. Turnaround time will be based on my workload.
I'm offering everyone a 10 BTC discount on their first essay. I reserve the right to retract this discount, e.g. to prevent abuse if your forums account is very new, or to keep my workload manageable if I get swamped with jobs.
I require payment upfront and will not give refunds; please contact me to discuss your request and get a quote. Most requests should be a flat 5 BTC/page. I'll be happy to send you drafts-in-progress for feedback. I'll deal with copyright rights on a case by case basis.
