I Pass

I think I’ll have to pass.

Avoid stereotypical material. We’re looking for new ideas or fresh approaches to old ideas. Even the most tired cliché can work with a clever twist. Here are some stereotypical adventure ideas; think twice about using them unless you have a particularly good twist in mind.

• Rescue someone’s kidnapped daughter
• Solve a murder perpetrated by a doppelganger.
• Retrieve an ancient artifact.
• Battle a deranged wizard or sorcerer.
• Repel a simple humanoid infestation.
• Defeat an undead army.

The above list is not all-inclusive.

Eliminate these and I’ve got nothing left.

So, old cliches can work with a clever twist but stereotypical adventures cannot??

Yeah, I'll be trying my hand at this.

I didn't think there was anything else!

I'm considering giving this a shot. It's not like the word count is large. Although I'm pretty satisfied with my "almost famous" status at the moment.

Or "For clever twists we are prepared to pay. Stereotypes we can produce without your help."

This looks like fun!

I think I might give this a whirl to test my writing skills on. While I've never done freelance work before in any shape or form, this looks like an opportunity too good to pass up.

If I can think of a good plot and find the time, sure.
