would any of you be interested in doing commission pieces? we have some short story formats we would like to see brought to life and we can pay in ISK! these arent anything too lengthy and would probably be easy for most of you.

Sure can you give us an example of a format you would have someone write in?

sure, we think fiction brings many of the great ideas to life because the EvE lore is so deep. many of the devs have talked about how much they liked it CCP Praetorian for instance. in that sense we think u fiction writers are some of the most influential members of the community, even if you dont see it.
the short stories we would like to see are:
1. a piece describing and leading up to the assassination attempt on the life of Tibus Heth from would be killers POV. here's what official canon wrote: http://community.eveonline.com/news/news-channels/world-news/tibus-heth-shot
2. a piece detailing the use of a cloak [specifically mentioning limitations like audible sounds upon cloaking & uncloaking] u can continue what we started here: http://dustmercs.blogspot.com/2013/02/glimpse-operation-222.html
3. a piece detailing ship boarding using special trojan-horse ammunition designed to penetrate hulls and deliver mercs onto a dreadnought.
4. a piece describing mercs attacking a station.
5. a piece detailing a corp theft by a single, sneaky elite level operative.
6. a short story about a merc extraction from a hot zone. u can continue what we started here: http://dustmercs.blogspot.com/2013/02/good-morning-feythabolis.html

not anything unrealistic, perhaps twice as long as the examples above.

I'm genuinely interested. I might just try one or more of these as a little challenge for myself. How would I give you the piece upon completion?
EDIT: Forgot to ask: How much ISK?

They accepted my first story, and paid so quickly I didn't even know the money was in my account. Working on a second story now.
Is there a way to PM people on this forum, btw?

free or commission whatever you'd like personally. just keep the great stories coming. even if u dont realize it, fiction does a great job of pushing the lore, gameplay and inspires the devs as well. if u arent comfortable doing stories we accept GNN articles for 500K in ISK each. we have samples in the OP.

I'll be writing an infiltration/boarding bit tonight after work. I'll see what I can't do about multiple posts for it.
You'll have to excuse my dialogue. I know it's pretty bad.

Can you cite your involvement in the lore?
If you cant I wouldn't do it as your responses will be decidedly negative from RPers

Involvement? You mean did I participate in the lore that the story would be based on? I thought it was a made up scenario, so nah.

Sorry I thought you were referencing Tibus Heth.
But I look forwards to seeing how you nabbed a Caldari corporate executive.

It's entirely feasible to work with an existing CEO in either DUST or EVE.
I worked my story with Malcolm Khross from Wiyrkomi Honor Guard in EVE, though I have yet to officially type it out. My RP is largely supported now by the Pyre Falcon alliance, as WHG was dissolved after a State sanctioned Audit.

You misunderstand me, I thought he was referencing the disappearance of Tibus Heth.

Ahh, yeah. Heth would be problematic. It would be wiser to work with other players or write up a minor non-existant corporation to kidnap.

So what happened to all of the stories that were going to be written? These guys were actually paying for original content and no one wanted to get the ISk? Really?
