They offered to write an article about Egypt.
One magazine suggested that I write an article about Egypt. Something like a light humorous story. Size 8000-10.000 characters. There is such a question: I am offered to name the fee and terms myself. Well, this is the timing (if necessary, I won’t sleep for a couple of nights). But how much does this work cost? How much can you ask for, so that they don’t send and don’t offend themselves? Maybe someone wrote articles and cooked in this journalistic kitchen? What is a GOOD fee for such an article???

I cannot but write, although off topic. I don’t know how much it will cost, but I read your stories with pleasure. I wish you success in the journalistic field.
When published, give me the address!
I know a few Arabic words (about which I already wrote to you)

And I have a counter question on the topic.
They offered to buy a photo from me. Did someone sell their photos?
I think it's a coincidence with Mannes, but sometimes I believe in the "law of paired cases" ;)))

I don’t know about the photo, by the way, I’m interested myself ... In short, I’m writing an article, rara74 gives the source of the photo, and Kracotka provides us with a large reading audience (it has a lot of “readers”, it won’t get poorer)
;-)

I don’t know, it’s unlikely that after Mikhail Zadoronov you will be able to better describe the adventure in Egypt, the local population, excursions, life, and the very state of our person who got there for the first time in humor. Dare but I think it's hard to compete with such a classic.
аватар papa74
Zadornov M. did not listen to a hundred years.
Mannes - read. Various things.
miki08, if Mannes reaches the level of the classic, then the fee should be appropriate. How much do you think Zadornov writes for?
аватар miki08
I think that Zadornov gets very well, I advise you to listen to his Egyptian notes, believe me, he is really a good writer, everything is very accurate and subtle, humor is secondary there, but of course there is, the description of the meeting of the sun on Mount Moses is especially beautiful. It’s just that we, as tourists, see Egypt the way they want to show us, but in fact it is completely different, and it’s very difficult to write something real, I think for this you need to live there for at least a couple of years.

Why reach the level of Zadornov?
Everyone has their own perception of reality, and Mannes has it, this perception is very positive, friendly with humor, everything should work out.
I wish you success!
аватар miki08
Unfortunately, I am not familiar with the work of Mannes and I can’t judge, I just wrote that it would be very difficult now, because there are already such stories by Zadornov.
аватар papa74
Mannes, I'm for you!
аватар papa74
miki08, to speak here, you can click on mannes and read, for starters...
аватар elenako
And before there was the work of Chekhov, Tolstoy, Turgenev ...
I'm for Mannes!!!
аватар miki08
They speak on the podium, and I kind of explained my position in normal Russian.
аватар mannes
Oops, I didn’t know that Zadornov had such things! I'll have to google ... Damn, I have to give the answer to the editor on Wednesday, but I haven't found out anything yet.
аватар miki08
Mannes I read your stories for a certain type of people, it is interesting and instructive. How much to ask? Apply the tactics of the Egyptians, ask for much more, and then bargain, I'm not kidding, the East is a delicate matter. Talk to the journalists of this publication, maybe even a hint of the amount will be prompted.
аватар mannes
Yes, they suggested in a personal that it is from 300 USD. and to infinity. I will think...

as one well-known marketer in Kharkov said: "name the price at which your voice does not tremble!" =)
аватар elenako
A thousand. To each.
But seriously, if you haven’t heard Zadornov yet, you shouldn’t even listen to him now until you write an article. Then, when the job is done, you can listen.
аватар mannes
Persuaded until I write - I will not listen, so as not to be influenced by the "higher mind" 8-0 Tomorrow I will call the editor and talk.
аватар mannes
Sad ending...
Today I drove up to the editor (or who he is, I don’t know for sure). I named a price that suits me, he agreed, but with a "ma-a-scarlet" reservation - my story will be published under the authorship, I quote, "a young and talented writer, limited in time" 8-((.
When my apofigenie passed, I politely (although it was disgusting at heart) refused. I don’t want to be a “literary negro”, and children don’t cry at home hungry, so the career of a journalist didn’t work out, I’ll have to retrain as a house manager 8-)
аватар elenako
Oh, these young and talented!???
Write here on the forum.
In general, everything really turned upside down - is it really so important for a "talented" person to sign under someone else's name ???
Don't worry, we'll publish our own magazine!
аватар elenako
It is a pity that you are a tactful person, do not name the magazine, I would stop reading it.
аватар papa74
Mannes, we'll break through anyway! The pics are off too...
But for myself I set records ...
look at Yandex-photos, today is my photo-photo-of-the-day!
аватар miki08
Well done, respect. This means that Ukraine has not died yet, since people with their own dignity remain.
аватар Anetka-gan
Yeah!! So much for censorship and journalists! everything is in front of you!
