Hi
I have been writing erotic short stories, with the intention of putting them into longer ebooks, but I have been approached by someone who wants me to write him a private story to his specs, and he would pay for it.
I asked did he want to buy the copyright or could I reuse it afterwards, and he said that I could reuse it.
Length would be between about 2,500 and 4,000 words.
My plan is to ask for an amount of x per word, and ask for a fixed amount to be paid up front, with the remainder paid once the story is completed, the balance dependent on the final length.
He would not be allowed to publish this story at all - it would be for his own personal consumption only.
How does that sound, and what should my x amount per word be, as an unpublished writer?
