Something Else?
I’m ALWAYS open to and looking for opportunities to collaborate! I love working with like-minded people on passion projects that pique my interest. I want motivational partnerships where we can create cool things and everyone wins.
Things I’m doing or have done that don’t fit neatly in the writing/editing box include:
- Reviewing and promoting books/comics
- Running promotional/giveaway contests
- Interviewing various creatives
- Curating an online horror-centric bookstore
- Publicity work for publishers/authors
If you have any ideas you’d like to collaborate on, or would simply like to brainstorm (I definitely know it helps to talk things out with someone), then feel free to reach out!
What People Are Saying
“Ben has been a critical part of our team at Puzzle Box Horror since he started writing and working with us in early 2021. His writing is top notch and his collaboration is fantastic. He is a rare breed of high output and great communication, which is hard to find with contractors. Ben also assists with promotion and editing, and goes above and beyond in everything he does. I can’t recommend Ben enough as a partner on any project.”
“While preparing my manuscript for submission to agents, I knew I needed someone with a sharp eye and keen insight to help clean things up and smooth over the rough edges. Ben Long stepped into that role beautifully, going above and beyond my expectations, offering expert advice and detailing blind spots in my own narrative voice—tips and tricks that have improved my overall writing toolbox ever since. Professional, intelligent, and efficient, I highly recommend him to any author hoping to take their work to the next level.”
— Hamelin Bird, author of DOUBLE VISION and WAYWARD SUNS
