Aloha, Hacker News. Just a few minutes ago, I launched Punchy Prose. Recently, I turned my full-time writing gig at a tech blog into a part-time stint so I could focus on honing my Python skills and whipping up web projects. I figured, however, that I could fuse my two interests and lend a hand with copyediting and copywriting. And lo, Punchy Prose was born.
PS If you're curious, I built the site with Django.
- nicholasreed 13y agoI love the concept, but I'm surprised at the (IMO) low pricing. How much time are you (or are you outsourcing too) spending on a $19 task?
- alexissantos 13y agoThanks! When it comes to pricing, I'm shooting from the hip. I'll be doing all the work myself. If it becomes too big of a beast to handle on my own... I'll figure something out.
- jacques_chester 13y agoIf it gets "too big", raise your prices.
- alexissantos 13y agoThat's certainly one way to handle it.
- jacques_chester 13y agoIt's the best way. Pricing is the longest lever you can apply to profitability. Don't be afraid to move it.
- alexissantos 13y agoDuly noted.
