OC Poetry Commissions [OPEN]

• $5 for a 4-line poem OR for a haiku.
• $8 for an 8-line poem.
• $10 for an 8-line poem that also tells a story about the character.
• $12 for a 10-line poem, story or themed.

Terms/technical info:

• Couples are okay and there's no extra charge! I'll only write about 3 characters in 10-line poems, however, as I don't think I could fit them as well into an 8-line poem. More than 3 characters and we'll have to negotiate something with more lines that'll cost more.
• Commissioned poems will follow a rhyming scheme (typically ABAB for 4-line, ABABCDCD for 8-line) and will be in a loose iambic pentameter.
• You can do whatever with the poem afterwards as long as it's not for profit and you don't claim that you wrote it.
• If I don't feel like I can write a good poem about your character(s) for whatever reason, then I'll let you know. I reserve the right to turn down a commission for any reason, but it's unlikely that I will.
• I'll do one edit to your poem free of charge after it's done. After that, each edit whether large or small will cost $1.
• Payment is done through PayPal. You can pay me before or after your commission is done; I don't really mind either way.
• Poems will have a turnaround time of 1-10 days. If I don't have it done after 10 days, you are welcome to request a refund and I'll do it with no questions asked.

Examples:

1. 4-line poem for Waltz
2. 8-line Oto-chro poems one & two
3. 8-line story poem for Jess
4. 10-line story poem for Alyssa
5. Compilation of completed commissions

Just send me a note if you'd like one (or more?), let me know about your character(s), and give me a prompt/theme for the poem (for regular poems) or a situation (for story poems). I work better with less strict prompts, but I'd like to know as much about your character(s) as I can so that the poem suits them.

Current slots are listed in this personal bulletin on Toyhouse just so I don't have to keep two places updated. However, I'll change the title of this journal to reflect whether they're currently open or closed.
