Re: Fic commissions?

(Anonymous) 2018-05-12 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
I asked for barebones information generally. Fic length, what characters/ship they wanted front and centre, any requests for particular AU or plot. And if I was working with OCs, I asked for information about the OC's backstory and voice (voice is very important, they need to sound like themselves).

My commissions started with a conversation, figuring out what people wanted or didn't want and where I could have fun. If they only had a vague idea, I'd float plot ideas past them and see if they liked one more than the other. Sometimes people just wanted me to surprise them and gave me a lot of freedom. And sometimes people knew EXACTLY what they wanted, especially if they were commissioning smutfic. It really varies, the same way it varies with art commissions.

I think the only real issue, is people are more used to commissioning art than they are fic. They just say they want a fic about these characters in these settings. And I have to pull out of them things like character voices, histories, quirks, or anything else that'll effect how I write.
