I've hired a lot of fiction writers over the years on upwork, used to spend a few hundred a month on getting stories written, I've tapered off a little bit, mainly because managing a team of writers was getting to be more work than it was worth for a never ending supply of mediocre fantasy and sci-fi. I even stopped updating the site I was publishing them all to[1]. All of the writers but 1 were amazing from the start. I had a single bad experience that eventually I made a good experience by just communicating with the writer, telling them I knew they were better than the quality they provided, and to just give it another go. That story eventually became one of my favorites[2]. 1: http://fictorio.us/ http://fictorio.us/ 2: https://fictorio.us/2017/10/12/zeta-mu/ https://fictorio.us/2017/10/12/zeta-mu/
