Learning from History's Biggest Writing Blunders
Here's a list of famous writing blunders that we can learn from.
I've been working on a novel (NA romance, LGBT+) for about 3 years now. It's basically finished, but I'd love to get in touch with an editor who can help me "brit pick" as it takes place in the UK (Merseyside), but I am from Denmark. Also, someone who I can contact when I'm in doubt about changes I'm working on.
Looking for a ghostwriter with energy, imagination, and excellent casual writing skills for ongoing fiction book writing work. I am looking for stories up to 50K in length, written in the MM Paranormal Romance genre, in two person POV, third person past tense. (Please note the MM part of that genre is important, and if you don't know what it is, then this gig is probably not for you, thank you). NDA and Contract will be supplied. All rights will be mine on payment. Preference will be given to writers who can show initiative and who are happy to write a story based on a loose premise, rather than one who will require planned outline/character details. Writing samples must be provided, as well as the use of the word "Rebel" in the application details so that I know you ...
I'm looking to publish a fiction novel which will be a romance/fantasy based around the wealthy families that live in the desirable town of Windham, NH, USA. I would like to completely leave the creative process up to the contracted ghost writer, whom can perform their own research on social media and online to get a feel for the wealthy neighborhoods of Windham, which is a desirable town just north of Massachusetts with a hot real estate market and great school systems, but has quickly outpriced the communities surrounding it, but has come with a façade of picture perfect $1.0M + mansions in new sub-divisions all over the town. Think "Desperate Housewives" type vibe.

Hey, I’m looking for an idea for a character driven action/adventure/military scifi series. Our main character(man) somehow ends up in a situation where he goes on adventures that involves a spaceship and him saving the day, earth, the galaxy. He can start alone or be part of a crew. It can start in the present day, but then there has to be a plausible scenario on how he comes in contact with advanced technology or start in the future at a point where humans on earth are advanced enough to travel space. The focus is on fights, challenges and conflicts that will have to be solved. Do not submit plots for individual books but an overall idea which can be told over a series of a few books. Here are some examples that fall in line with what I’m looking for: I dont want i...
A short animated film adaptation of the collective writings of Russian avant-garde absurdist, Daniil Kharms. 'Today I Wrote Nothing' is a series of short poems, stories and "events" that encapsulate the collective consciousness of Stalinist Russia. In this adaptation, we are looking to modernise and translate the cultural specifics of Soviet Russia to a global audience. The film can be classified as a dark comedy, with imagery and scenarios that begin mundanely, then become wildly surreal. It is a fun, adult oriented anthology made up of short, snappy vignettes of everyday life. I am looking to collaborate with an animator and get advice on the best stylistic approach for the project. I am the writer, but have no experience in animation. I would like the animation t...
