Buying Writing
Posted: Tue Apr 15, 2014 11:50 pm
I'm starting a project to create a giant server library, and I'm buying player published books for it. I am looking for anything actually written by a player, particularly fiction. If you do not have the supplies to do it yourself, I will give you a blank book and quill to copy the book onto and give back to me. I am looking especially for rare books and books by players who have left the server. I already have Deflow's series and I have set up deals to get books by el andres and misterstrawman, but anything else I am looking to buy.
The library will also have a section of historical records. For this section, I will pay people in diamond for a written account of what they have done on the server or what events they have witnessed. I will pay up to ten diamonds for these accounts, depending on length and quality. If it's a full fifty pages, doesn't have tons of spelling and grammar mistakes, and you put actual effort into it, you can expect ten diamonds for it. If you are interested in writing something for the archive but can't make a book, I will lend you ink, leather, and/or paper for you to write it.
If anyone wants to write new fictional books I will consider buying them, but if it looks like you wrote random crap in 5 minutes just to take advantage of the deal, don't expect a lot. I am not trying to scam people, I am just worried that if I promise a generous deal on anything you write some troll will try to sell me 10 volumes of the letter e for 200 diamond. If it is actually good writing I am interested though.
