About this Gig

Most mythology scripts on YouTube are a retelling of a Wikipedia page, and viewers can tell within thirty seconds.


I write the other kind: a script built around one question the viewer cannot answer, resolved at the end, with key claims backed by a source list you can put in the description.


WHAT YOU GET

- A hook written for the first fifteen seconds, not a slow introduction

- A single narrative spine - one question, one answer, no listicle padding

- Chapter breaks with estimated timecodes

- A source list (academic, museum, or primary text - not other YouTube videos)

- Pronunciation notes for non-English names

- Delivered as a plain text file, ready for your voiceover


WHAT I NEED

- Your topic

- Target length in minutes

- Your audience: general, or already familiar with the mythology


I write about Norse, Slavic, Hindu, Japanese, Greek and Celtic mythology, plus ancient history. If your topic is outside those, message me first - I will tell you honestly if I can do it well.


NOT INCLUDED: voiceover, editing, animation, thumbnail design, music, and visual descriptions.
