We are seeking skilled and experienced fiction writers to create unique and captivating Reverse Harem stories. This is a long-term, project-based opportunity for the right candidates. Qualifications Candidates must possess the following: • Native fluency in English with excellent spelling, grammar, and punctuation skills. • Proficiency in creating plot summaries and chapter-by-chapter outlines based on provided themes and tropes. • A consistent writing pace of 20,000+ words per week, with a strong commitment to meeting deadlines. • A clear understanding of Reverse Harem stories and their unique dynamics. • A proven track record of writing 10 or more romance novels, each with a minimum of 60,000 words. • The capacity to produce 100% original content free of plagiarism. If you meet all the qualifications above, read on! What We’re Looking For The ideal candidate has substantial experience in crafting multiple Reverse Harem stories. We are currently focused on producing novels with 80,000+ words. Our budget for each novel is $1,000 ($860 upon submission of the initial draft and $140 upon completion of revisions). If the word count exceeds 84,000 words, we will provide additional compensation. Additionally, we are committed to rewarding exceptional work. Writers whose stories become bestsellers may qualify for bonus payments. This is a long-term collaboration, as we aim to produce 10 or more novels annually. We would love to continue working with writers who demonstrate consistent quality and commitment. Please note: We will retain all rights to the completed work or any portion thereof. How to Apply If you’re interested in this opportunity, please provide the following: 1. Your Favorite Niche: Let us know the genre you enjoy writing in most and why it inspires your creativity. 2. Your Experience with Romance Novels: Tell us about your experience writing romance books, especially Reverse Harem. How many books have you written, either independently or as a ghostwriter? Have any of your works made it to bestseller lists? Share any noteworthy achievements or published works. 3. Writing Sample: Please submit a plot summary and several chapters from your best work. For Reverse Harem stories, include one chapter written from the FMC’s POV and one chapter for each MMC’s POV. This will help us assess your storytelling abilities, character development, and overall writing style. Why Join Us? If you’re a talented writer passionate about bringing imaginative stories to life, particularly in the Reverse Harem genre, we encourage you to apply. Together, we can create stories that captivate readers and inspire fans. Thank you for considering this opportunity. We look forward to reviewing your application and discovering the unique voice you can bring to our team! Payment Details • $860: Paid upon submission of the initial draft. • $140: Paid after completing the full revision process. Note: Many publishing houses traditionally pay only after the entire revision is complete. However, we’ve adopted a two-stage payment system to allow writers to receive the bulk of their payment upon completing the draft. This approach ensures a win-win situation, enabling us to dedicate time for diligent beta reading, revisions, and proofreading while compensating you sooner.
