Any creative writers here? I'm trying an experiment.

I think this sounds like a really fun thing to do. I'm told that I write decently, and have been trying to get into the creative side of writing lately. Also, the PI-like aspect sounds fun! I'll hit you up on email.

Thanks man, I've received a positive response so far - a few creepy proposals but I guess I'm asking for it :) I'll be on the lookout for your email.

email is on the way! Although the idea doesn't scale well, this actually seems like the seed of an interesting business.

I'd had a similar idea for dating sites: hire someone to write your profile, based on the best available data. OKCupid's blog has some great posts on how to basically SEO your profile (but instead of search traffic, you get dating traffic...) and it seems useful to a segment of the population to have it done professionally.

Anyhow, look forward to hearing from you
