Applying Assisstant Writers (Patreon)
Content
Continuing the investment poll, I have today received the test scene from the second applicant. Now it's time for you to check them out and give me your opinion. Below I will post both the brief that I gave both of them and also repost their application infos. For the brief, the scene is a planned scene that is plot-wise still a bit in the future and it happens after Alicia has corrupted the blue value orbs to (some) degree.
Test Scene Brief:
- (1) The scenario is that Aura and Laura run into the bullies again, but at a later stage where Aura has built-up lots of lewd experiences in the Isekai and gained mental changes that makes her hot for well-built muscular, hot men.
- (2) The bully group (lead by the character Rowdy Student) is out for revenge for last time and threatens Aura to have her suck their dicks after beating her up.
- (3) Aura gets ready to kick their asses, but scanning them and noticing that they have worked out to beat her, she starts to feel attraction towards them.
- (4) Aura gets conflicted about her sense of justice that tells her she should beat them up and her desire to find out how their dicks taste like.
- (5) She ends up giving in and doing a blowjob for Rowdy Student.
- (6) Eventually she commands Laura to join her and insults her for not being a better girlfriend to Rowdy Student and throwing away the opportunity for a high quality dick.
- (7) After making him cum, the scene ends with Aura telling Laura that she should properly become Rowdy Student's girlfriend. (Contrasting her initial attitude.)
Applicants:
- (1) elizzyviolet: Among other projects, I was the lead writer on the hit visual novel/match 3 hybrid game Furry Shades of Gay, have written for several games made by CyberScherzo Studios, and am currently a writer for The Company, a text-based game with around 1300 patrons at time of writing. I also have a huge backlog of stories on Literotica, and made the well-received text-based RPGs Slime Girl Caverns and Succubus Draining Maze.
Test scene: Google Doc
Price: 0.1 USD per word. - (2) Alberto Pizzaolla: I'm interested in the position, especially since you mentioned "mind effect" content is something you're looking for. I'm pretty big on that stuff and I believe I can do a great job writing those kinds of scenarios. English is my first and only language, and I'm familiar with various isekai and anime tropes. I've worked as the lead writer for Rosa's are Red, and am currently working as the lead writer for Our Apartment.
Test scene: Google Doc
Price: 0.06 eurocent per word. (Same price as previous assisstant writer)
Although, she does have some nice humorous lines going for her, I would say that elizzyviolet has not proven to provide better quality for her high price (0.1 USD per word is pretty much the top of the bar in adult writing, which gave me quite some high expectations). However, neither candidates managed to fulfill a certain point where the previous assisstant writer also had troubles:
(4) Aura gets conflicted about her sense of justice
Neither of them manage to capture the moral corruption part to a degree I find satisfactory. If I were to integrate this scene, I would quite heavily, in both cases, edit this part and focus more on the conflicting feelings of her attraction vs her feelings of hate against people who abuse their power against the weak. I'm not sure if this is really even a problem with these candidates since it was also kind of a weak-point with the previous assisstant writer, maybe it's just natural that when I put out a job ad towards erotic writers, I will mostly get ones that are good at sexual corruption, but not so skilled at writing moral corruption :'D
So here comes now the big question. I'm personally currently torn between offering the position to Alberto or continuing the search. Although I don't have any remaining good candidates... The requirement of "playing the game" has drastically reduced the number of applicants (ok there were a lot of cheap, unskilled and most importantly desperate applicants who would do anything for a job, but I'm not counting them^^'). So I'm not sure if further search would yield better results and maybe just by working together, my concerns can be fixed.
Well, anyways, enough from my blurb, let me know what you think. Is there some pro I missed for Elizzyviolet? Or maybe any big pro/con argument I missed for Alberto? Let me know!
Since I opened up the topic in the investment poll accessible for all patrons and as I wrote, that the decision on who we hire, impacts that other poll as well, I will also be giving access to this poll to all patrons.
