Interactive Story Writer (Freelance)
Budget: $1,500 – $3,000 USD
Job description
We're looking for incredibly talented writing pros that are interested in bringing their voice to a new mobile platform for romantic graphical fiction! All genres are on the table—romance, fantasy, western, comedy, horror, you name it—as long as your stories have characters that readers will fall for and steamy romances that will leave them wanting more.
Our ideal candidates are passionate about the art of storytelling through interactive narratives and experienced in writing dialogue, scenes, story treatments, or supporting text for games. We are picturing someone with strong narrative sensibilities who can embrace our game development philosophy and share their hard-earned expertise to create an incredible experience for our players.
You will:
· Take ownership of your story and its world;
· Craft a brilliant long-term, multi-season plot;
· Write branching dialogue and narration;
· Be open to feedback, and work changes into the story as needed;
· Make sure your copy is clean and error-free for publication;
· Keep your readers wanting more;
· Make your readers swoon (the art team can help with this one);
· Make your readers cry (on occasion, as required);
· Tell the art and sound teams what your story needs for each chapter;
· Provide feedback on assets as they are created.
Requirements:
· Wickedly creative and a master of snappy dialogue;
· A worldbuilder, ready to amaze readers with how well-thought-out your stories are;
· Self-driven and good at self-managing your time to meet writing deadlines;
· A fast learner, quick to pick up and run with new workflows;
· Well-established in writing fiction (1+ years experience);
· Willing and able to work in the 17+ romance genre (including LGBTQ romances);
· English speaking at a native level.
Major Bonus Points:
· Experience with interactive fiction;
· Experience in working in games.
Materials requested:
· A current resume, highlighting writing work and educational experience.
· A previous writing sample (short story, script, or game writing). We prefer fictional prose samples of writing that showcase friendship and romance for a young adult audience. If you have more than one applicable sample, you can send more than one.
`` · Please contact us for more details if you meet the requirements.
