The 2k is for ebooks not an ebook.

Honestly, it's evil having the that plan to use and scam people.
I have been scammed by nairalanders and even when I meet new writers, they express insecurity towards our new transaction and I always relate with them.

We might also have to create a thread on writers one should not use. Trust me, I have been frustrated by a writer or writers I met on nairaland. Basically, I have stopped accepting more works than I can do. If I complete three orders alone in a month, as long as I am happy and not having to run around someone then I am cool.

My bad experience with a writer here. We met and I gave him a work on event planning. He was supposed to submit on Thursday. The order due date is Monday, so if he fails, I still have time to extend. On Thursday, he told me he had issues but would unfailingly deliver the order on Friday. And that I am free to cancel the order if I don't want to wait. Being the patient type, I apologized for the problems he had and encouraged him.

On Friday, he did same thing and promised to unfailingly deliver on Saturday and that I can cancel the order too. On Saturday, he told me his dad got accident that he is almost done with the book. Only about 1000 words that is remaining. So he promised to deliver on Sunday morning.

On Sunday, he did same thing. Immediately I had to request for extension of delivery time. It was granted by the client and I started making alternatives. I had other writers but their hands were filled with works at that moment. Luckily, one of them finished with the one with her and I immediately reassigned the work to her. She told me she is going to start on Monday. I didn't tell you that she's teaching and I also have other works to give to her.

So I contacted the guy I met here and told him that, in other not to waste his time and energy as I understand what it means to write, that if he is able to deliver the work by 12PM on Monday, then I will be okay with it. He praised and thanked me.

By 11Am, he told me to give him 2pm. By 2pm he said 4pmBy 4pm, he sent in something. I asked him if it's free from plagiarism and checked on Grammarly, he confirmed. I took the work, formatted to Kindle and was about to deliver it only for this guy to tell me to hold on as the content hasn't been checked for grammar or plagiarism.

I got angry because I almost delivered the work and stood a risk of getting a bad review one that would lead to order scarcity. At that moment, I told the guy that we are done.

Immediately I said that, he began raining insults and calling me a scammer. And that he's coming to Nairaland to call me out. I just smiled and told him to go ahead. I had screenshots of everything. I began quoting his words for him.


It was a very bad experience and such writers don't deserve to be giving a work. I have met those that deliver 60% plagiarized contents and expect to be paid.

I write good articles. Range. 500—1500 words should you need a writer.

You're not alone. Its not enough that they pay little sums. They don't want to pay at all! I've been a victim several times. Even if you send pdf, they can still copy and paste. Be careful. Once you prove your worth, all other articles must be pay before delivery.

wahala... says a jobless chap
people like you usually settle for less. even if it's not the best figure in the industry, this is a job that should take an hour each day.

so, working an hour for 12k, 24 days a month is bad. Right?

imagine if people who work 8 hours daily are this paid!

use your brains.
if you have none, shut your lips.

People Use insults to cloud simple communication. I advised people to negotiate. I'm not hating. I write too. Unless desperation sets in, I won't advise a competent writer to take this. That's my two cents. It's a public forum.

Quality only

please anyone interested in this job should negotiate well. The figures are not good.

Tyrexw:

Right now, I'm thinking you have a problem. Searched for your name and email address on my Google mail, couldn't find any traces except the message you sent via NL.

And you all should stop the dwarf thinking that some people somewhere would get articles from you and not pay.

Yes, some stupid people actually do that.

But not all.

If your articles ain't good enough, no one is gonna get back to you. it's even a pain getting back to bad writers telling them they're wack.

And how did it happen twice? So, I fooled you twice or isn't that what you mean?

And how much is the money you're talking about?

Some people will just come on NL and start spoiling you for something you know nothing about.

Also, have you messaged me about this, personally?

Have you googled your said article and found it online?

Please, always do the needful first.

And ensure you have the skills too...

It's unprofessional not to pay up after delivery. These claims can not be ignored. If you owe, PAY
