[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 9831741, member: 19675"] I’ve edited stuff [I]for free [/I]when I thought it appropriate. When I have edited for pay, it’s always been at an hourly rate, depending on the task. Legal editing gets done at my lawyer hourly rate. Everything else below that is negotiable. Would I work on the project described? That depends on what I think of the project itself. Not kidding- I’ve turned down legal work that would have made me a millionaire, because I wasn’t the right attorney for the job. If you can’t get part of a project done for free or at an affordable rate given your discretionary budget, [I]perhaps it’s not the right time to do the project[/I]. Or you could do what other creatives short on cash have done in the past: get a loan, some kind of sponsorship, or even sell some or all of the ownership rights you’d normally have.🤷🏾♂️ I personally create things in a wide variety of formats: written fiction, chord books for unusual guitar tunings, music compositions, illustrations in pencils, inks and pastels, acrylic paintings and even new recipes. Beyond that, I’ve designed & commissioned various kinds of jewelry, fabric art and even two custom guitars. At no point have I asked for someone to discount their work for me, but some definitely have anyway. Because of my unwillingness to seek discounts for services, I’ve got loads of physical and digital sketchbooks & notebooks of creations that will probably never see creation in their final intended forms because I can’t afford the price. Hell- I’m currently bartering my design skills and some of my materials to get certain jewelry pieces made because the price of gold has skyrocketed. [/QUOTE]
