Writer looking for work (Paid or Unpaid)

I'm a versatile writer with plenty of personal experience in original creative writing. Creative writing is where I shine, but I also have some degree of experience in journalism and in professional academic/medical writing as well (edited and helped write some papers in a UC San Francisco lab) if you're looking for someone who can nail those collectible academic lore pieces. I have plenty of hobbyist experience messing around in RPG Maker XP and VX Ace from 2013-2017 as well, so I'm familiar with what's involved in game writing, especially choice-based games.

Here's a few samples of personal work I've done. Each sample comes with a cover page describing the subject matter and the focus of the piece (eg: character design, world building, etc).

I'm looking to build a strong portfolio in terms of game writing; I'm looking specifically to work with those building games that are highly story-impacted/story-focused. I'm willing to contribute world building, character design, script/dialogue writing, the whole package. More interested in projects that have some sort of timeline laid out for completion.

I can contribute (to) the following:

  • projects centred around compelling narratives
  • pieces with strong focus on characterisation and development
  • world building, particularly involving detailed imagery
  • exploration of complex character dynamics

I'm open to participating in projects that do or don't feature LGBT+ and minorities, in terms of both cast and development team. I can work with any game genre and adapt my writing style to any subject matter!

I'd prefer compensation for high-effort and/or long-term projects,  but that can be discussed at future points.

You can contact me at  jun 💤#0110  on Discord; I can work multiple projects at once, so don't hesitate to shoot me a message no matter how long the topic's been up!

Hi Jun,

can you post a contact email? I'm working on a card game thats in need of a decent fantasy writer. We have alot of progress on the project so far, design screens and the basic story outline.

We're a team that has completed several other projects but now we're looking to develop more ambitious games with deep and impactful stories that are able to move people's hearts.

The project is not paid, its rev-share.

I'd love to see what you have on the project so far concept-wise and work out what it is you're looking for in terms of writing — unpaid is fine. I'm interested in seeing what you and the team have completed before!

You can contact me at aaronjgpark@gmail.com . I'll make a Skype down the line if I decide to contribute to the game, since I'm assuming you do a fair bit of communication there.
