I am thoroughly wondering if I opened up literary commissions, would anyone be interested?


Though these aren't just E-rated fluff fics.... I am opening up for stuff that would be... inappropriate for dA. Of course, you must understand, the inappropriate for dA stuff would be slightly more... costly than anything I can actually put on dA.


I am just thinking about it because it would be a nice, probably easier way to earn some quick money. Something that I can do from home, you know?

Though I am not sure how much I should sell my work for or even how many commissions slots I would open.

I believe you may need to 'revive' your watchers^^" You've gone off the grid for a while and some of them may have become dormant. Also, giving a rough estimate of the range of price you might be offering for your works would be helpful to potential customers. I'd suggest not limiting the slots for the first time, and just take what comes your way until you get overwhelmed (I tried that before, and it was good business x'D). Next time then you'd have a good idea how many you can finish within a certain amount of time.

Write a different journal and post info like your price range, the things you're willing to write and other relevant info, and then find groups specific for written works to post the journal into to advertise your commission status. It would be ideal if you can provide some examples of your work in the journal itself, as people tend to be too lazy to have to go to your gallery to find things otherwise. A link would suffice.

List down the different types of things you can write, like lyrics, poems, stories, M-rated Stories, etc. Make sure you have an example of each if possible.

Make it easy to read at a glance too, and try not to ramble, for people get discouraged to read if your commission info is too complicated and tl;dr.
