Commissions

I have been a fantasy and science fiction writer for eight years. In addition to my own work, I also write commissions for clients, and I currently have some availability for new projects. My areas of expertise include:

  • Game content
    • Content for tabletop RPGs, including lore essays, monster manual entries, and side quests.
    • Content for video games, such as in-game documents
  • Short fiction
    • Stories for themed anthologies
    • Stories set in a client’s existing franchise.

My terms and conditions are listed below.

  • My rates are:
    • 8 cents/word for projects in which I retain IP rights.
    • 10 cents/word for work-for-hire projects in which I turn over IP rights but am still credited.
    • 20 cents/word for ghostwriting projects in which I turn over IP rights and am not credited.
  • The minimum word count is 1000 words per commission.
  • Upon accepting a commission, I will send a PayPal invoice for 50% of the total price, and will begin the commission after receiving that payment. The other 50% will be due at the end of the project.
  • Details for a given project such as the deadline, word count, and rights will be explicitly stated in the PayPal invoice.

Please note the following restrictions:

  • I cannot accept commissions for NSFW content.
  • I cannot accept commissions for fan fiction, i.e., content set in a universe to which the client does not own the copyright.
  • Terms and conditions may change without notice.
  • I reserve the right to decline a commission for any reason.

If you wish to hire me, please send me an email at aaroncantonwriter@gmail.com with details of your project, and I will get back to you.
