Pricing Concerns
One Main Issue we have is pricing concerns. This sould be streamlined
Many of you are deeply concered with this process and how you will get paid and I want to make it fair and managable for everyone involved in this project. To be fair and balanced I would like for you all to agreen on one fixed price that all of you will share.
I want in reality and in common sense a flat rate of $50-$65 dollars per 2500 words
Steve Said this:
I agree on this a 3 dollar/2 dollar per 100 words is far to great a cost for me to cover at this moment I would really like to have a fixed about per 2500 words
Thoughts?

Allan,
I like your vision and your ideas for this novel and magazine. I think I can populate your world with intriguing and entertaining characters and plot lines for your readers. I also understand that you are just starting out on what hopes to be a glorious adventure for all concerned.
That having been said, my bid (which you had accepted) was for 330.00 for stories of the length you describe, which while considerably more than even the top amount of the range you mention here, it is considerably less than my usual rates of .50 to 1.00 per word for such submissions, offered in recognition of your "start-up" status. I understand that you are working with many writers, some of whom may be just starting out, students, or are otherwise in acceptance of such rates, and that may be the case with whom you addressed this post -- but before we get to far along, I want to be clear that my bid of $55.00 per 300 -400 word page, represents the minimum I would accept to participate.

Is there any other topics to start with ease, after which I can pick up more?
Hi Allan,
Is there any other topics with ease to start with ? Else, I shall start with the same. Also, could you give me the details?
Word count should be 2500 words?
And the topic...let me know....
Also is there any other instructions like peculiar title type or any other things?
Do let me know
I can submit before 10th Feb.
Waiting to hear from you
Thanks
Riz

Can start with steampunk itself.
Hi Allan,
I see steampunk is also a good topic as there are plenty of resources on the internet on it.
I can work on this itself. Also, I would like to whether there are any other specifications to be included in the article like a different format or any other.
Let me know to start.

it should be about
wheter steampunk is or is not a lasting genere of sience fiction or is it just a trend that will go out of fashion some day, or in reality has it been with us since sci fi began (like Verne and HJ Wells.)
Other than that I dont have any specifications
Great! Thanks.
Hi Allan,
Got it now and I shall start on with this to submit before 10th Feb - 2500words.

I am willing to write for you at the prices you have stated above for the current time given that you are just starting off, but I would like it known that I would prefer that I be paid what I am worth which is what I bid on the project in Guru. I do expect that at some point in the future you will be raising the amount you pay for our submissions to you. All I need to know right now to move forward is do you want us to work off the story line that is currently being constructed in the lower section of this forum or can we work on a Sci-fi story of our own? I just need to know so that I can begin the work on the story for myself. I will put through the agreements on Guru tonight.

Circumstance update...
Allen,
I am sorry about getting back to you so late on this project but I had a death in the family and did not discover until I got there that I was the executor to the will. All my work files and my laptop were still at home since I had planned only to be gone over the weekend and not for 3 weeks. I am still interested in working on your project and I submitted the project agreement on guru today. I will read over the 5 chapters today and tonight and begin writing the story as soon as the project agreement has been approved so that I know you are still interested in having me as one of your writers.
If you have any questions, you can email me at deterrell@det-enterprises.com and I will get back to you as quickly as I can. Thanks for understanding.
Eric

I am patiently waiting for the project agreement to be approved...
I submitted the agreement through Guru and I have not heard anything back since. I am prepared to start writing the story but I cannot start on the project until I know for certain that I have your approval to do so. If you do not desire me on this project anymore then kindly go into guru and release me from it so I am not having it show as being hired when I am not. I can have the story to you in just a few days from the time you approve the agreement. If you have some questions with something in the agreement then please contact me and let me know so that we can start moving forward on this project.
