[QUOTE="Orcus, post: 121724, member: 1254"] I wanted to chime in since Mike did work for us (and is working on another project for us as well). In addition to being a great writer, he also does the other things that get him repeat work as a freelancer: he is on time, his content is real good, he is within his page limits and his manuscripts are real clean--he follows guidelines and accepts input. He is very professional. I would work with him again--and guess what, I am! So for budding freelancers out there, pay attention to some of the things I mentioned if you want repeat work. It is a nightmare when a freelancer is late, has spotty content, exceeds the page limits (requiring you to cut stuff and delay the project), doesnt follow writing guidelines and ignores input from the publisher. Oh, and stay in communicaiton with your publisher. Dont do the "drop off the face of the earth" trick. I think Mike gets repeat work because he does all these things well, in addition to being a good writer. Clark Peterson Necromancer Games [/QUOTE]
