[center][i][b]Open[/b][/i] / Closed / Taking Waitlist Requests[/center] ----- [center]Howdy -- I'm Commie. I tried this once before, but there were [s]many[/s] some struggles along the way. I’m putting my literary skills on the market, as I am in need of money due to some financial strain (ie, student loans). However, I am also willing to take FR currency, since I need to keep up my skills and I like writing. I've been writing for several years with a background that started in forum roleplaying. I also have a BA in Creative Writing and I am in the process of applying to grad schools for my MFA (poetry). I’ve won a few awards and have been published in literary magazines. I typically write fan-fiction, original fiction, poetry, and creative nonfiction.[/center] ----- [center][u][i]Rules[/i][/u] • Flight Rising's rules apply at all times. That's a given.

I will send you a portion of the writing with a crazy annoying watermark as proof I've completed my end of the deal. • Your work will be delivered in the form of a Google Doc link. It will be read-only and available for you at any time! • By commissioning me, I also claim the right to utilize the piece(s) in any portfolio needs in the future. Your characters are still yours and will not be plagiarized. • [u]I will write FR and non-FR things!

Here are some short examples.[/center] [quote name="Fanfiction - Baldur’s Gate 3 (~200 Words, 1163 Words total)"]Goblin blood had never been harder to wash out of clothing, especially when it had managed to cling to Elanor’s skin for hours on end crawling through the underbelly of the Selûne temple. It permeated the threaded grooves of her chestplate and stained her skin, making her undershirt uncomfortable throughout every magical incantation and swing of her scimitar. And it reeked. Dunking it into the river water of camp did nothing to benefit it other than get some of the dripping lifeblood out of it, and now it was stained a lightish red down to the inside of the padding. Almost vaguely pink. Perish the thought, although Baldur’s Gate’s finest would probably be jumping for something as chic as that. It would take more than a miracle to sanitize it fully, but now was the case of being covered in grime. All the way down, in every little crevice. Elanor shivered, not so differently from when she could feel the parasite squirm in her mind. However, this was much easier to get rid of and didn’t involve every aspiring healer in the vicinity to come clamoring to her with disgust and an alleged cure. She slipped into the cold waters of the stream. At least the chill didn’t mince words. [/quote] [quote name="Original Fiction - Flash Fiction (154 Words)"][i]On a Postcard with a Cephalopod[/i] They came on the last day of July with your notice. The dragonflies had died out by then. Mosquito larvae were still squirming in the rusted-out wheelbarrow in the shed since that water hadn’t been dumped out since May. It was your job to do it. You were walking the creek looking for trilobites. I called you a rockhound, once. You hated it as much as you hated dogs. I remember you telling me one bit you and ran away with your laughter all the way home. I guess you found the lucky fossil because you never came home. They thought I was lying for you when I said you skipped town. Said I’d be harboring a deserter - I didn’t think you as one, but I don’t seem to know much. All I know is that the rain’s gone and they gave me my draft notice this week. [/quote] [quote name="Dragon Bios/Lore - Various"]Daughter of the Ashfall Wastes, Vaska felt her calling was to find her fortunes in the Sunbeam Ruins under the banners of the Lightweaver. There she found a Pearlcatcher named Varian in service of the goddess, and swore on her own life to defend her. Acolyte to the Lightweaver, Varian has always sought to be in service to the light and her Matron. With Vaska by her side, she goes into the ruins unafraid, looking to find answers regarding the Shade that once dreaded itself over the land. Born of the Plaguelands, Aneirin sought out the edges of Sornieth for the song that has plagued him and rattled his gilded bones. Unsure of what song he seeks, he follows Vaska and Varian through darkened ruins for his own answers.[/quote] [quote name="Poetry - Previously Published and Awarded"] [url=https://docs.google.com/document/d/14-wO4Q-H9RD570-Pev2egdX2Cznh3nc7PqHLYytgVsA/edit?usp=sharing][u]Here is a Google Document containing poems that have been previously published in literary magazines!

The words listed will be a minimum - it is entirely likely if you order a 1k word piece, I might go over by a hundred or so. USD prices are lower due to needing irl money over FR currency. The general rate is roughly [u][b]$1USD/150g/150kt[/b][/u] per 100 words, but this does vary to some degree.
