How do I sell myself?

[AliceShiki]

As Alice said, make the price, keep them cheap and don't be arrogant.

Wait, I said that!? >.<

And beware, many people will ask you to write smut with them in it

... o.0

Geez.

 

[Agentt]

Mmmmmmm, you mean like... If people are hiring you to write something for them?

I guess dollar/word is the norm for those things? Though you could just set a pre-established price before you start it out instead.

I guess I kinda mixed both of our opinions?

And yes, I have got am offer to write a bdsm incest smut

I am just a comedy author, so I refused!

I used to price myself by $0.03/word, but have recently raised it to $0.05. Some projects might hire me for a flat amount, and I've been offered anywhere between 300-800 just proofreading and making suggestions on outlines.

I know you from royal road

Ah it's you!? I've been seeing a lot of your published work—almost everywhere even.

Spoiler: This is it, right?

I spread myself everywhere.

So I guess that the minimum bar for commissions would be around 0.3/word. (Guess what I'm being paid currently—$0.0082)
What would you guys have to say about screenwriting? Does anyone have an idea? Can dollar/word count? I was thinking about a sort of weekly wage since you won't really have a target word count to hit.
Imagine scriptwriting, for animations and stuff and you'll be working with a team. I'm in talks with an indie director and they haven't set a budget yet, so they've been asking about writer's rates.

Edna says it still rubbish my dear. You can't go flying into a tornado to save kitty with your cloak! Unless it's Dr Stranger's Cloak.
