Starting off
3 years ago
I understand that getting started can be a pretty scary thing. Right now, despite having tens of thousands of hours spent writing, creating and making things, I have to admit that asking people to pay for something I make feels like a very daunting step.
It's not that I lack confidence, just that my experience with comissions is relatively inconsequential compared to other writers here such as Amethyst Mare, for instance. A commission of 7,000 words net her 200 dollars according to one of my clients and yet I only ask for 30 dollars per 10,000 words. Granted, her own level of expertise is more proven than my own but still, having to compete with someone like that can freeze most starting writers in their tracks.
I won't quit though. Talk to me so we can hash something out, if you're reading this. I can assure you my material is worth it and far cheaper than most of the artists here.
Not because I'm bad, but because I understand how new and unproven I seem to be.
