Stoic Tech Underdog Story
I’m commissioning a cinematic short story that traces a dismissed, underestimated engineer who—through strategy, resilience, and ruthless intelligence—ascends to lead the world’s richest technology company. The protagonist must feel authentically stoic and reserved while the overall tone remains inspiring and uplifting. Corporate politics, tense boardroom showdowns, relentless media scrutiny, and the personal cost of ambition all need to pulse through the narrative so the eventual triumph lands with real emotional weight. Pacing should stay tight, dialogue believable, and the final payoff deeply satisfying. Deliverables • Publication-ready manuscript (DOCX or Google Doc) • One-sentence logline • 100-word synopsis • One revision round after first submission Acceptance criteria • 5,000–8,000 words, fluent contemporary English • Consistent, plausible tech-industry details and stakes • Clear success arc culminating in CEO takeover • Final files shared via Google Drive or email link If you’re passionate about underdog success tales and can ground big drama in realistic technology-sector dynamics, I’d love to see a brief sample or outline of how you’d approach this project.
12 hours ago6 proposalsRemoteFantasy Webtoon Story Creation
I’m developing a new webtoon and need an original fantasy storyline that I can adapt into manga panels. The heart of the tale must revolve around a well-structured magic system—clear rules, limits, and surprises that drive both plot and character growth. Here’s what I’m looking for: • A captivating premise and short synopsis (no more than one page). • A chapter-by-chapter outline covering the first season (roughly 10–12 episodes). • Brief character bios highlighting motivations, conflicts, and how they interact with the magic system. • Key world-building notes: geography, culture, and any lore essential for artists and readers to visualize the setting. While magic is essential, I’m flexible on other classic fantasy ingredients such as mythical creatures or an epic quest if they serve the story. Tone can range from light adventure to darker intrigue; surprise me with something fresh yet coherent. Ideal collaborators have experience writing for comics, webtoons, or light novels and can balance pacing, dialogue, and visual beats. Please share a sample script or outline you’ve crafted in the past so I can gauge style and structure. I’m eager to start as soon as we agree on the core idea and delivery schedule. Let’s build a spellbinding saga together!
16 hours ago18 proposalsRemoteTechnical Manuscript Proofreading & Editing
I’m preparing a technical/academic manuscript for publication and need a meticulous editor to give it a final polish. The work involves: • Thorough proofreading for grammar, punctuation, and consistency • Stylistic editing to ensure the tone stays formal and precise • Fact-checking key terminology and citations where necessary • Applying Track Changes (or equivalent) so I can follow every modification The text is book-length, written in English by a non-native speaker, and includes discipline-specific terminology. Experience with academic or technical manuscripts is essential; familiarity with common citation styles (APA, Chicago, IEEE) is a plus. I value clear, timely communication and quick turnaround. If you’re detail-oriented and can deliver clean, publication-ready copy, let’s discuss the scope, sample pages, and deadlines.
