  • Chemist/Biologist/Biochemist Consultant for Sci-fi Novel
    Chemist/Biologist/Biochemist Consultant for Sci-fi Novel
    1 month ago
    Part-time

    Hello there. I'm a recent winner of a literary award for my soon to published science fiction novel(s), and I am looking for professionals, specifically in the sciences, to act as consultants. Originally, I had students in mind for this role but anyone with an interest is absolutely welcome to apply — a bonus if you like science-fiction books/film/television! I am hoping this partnership will lead to a lasting relationship in which you will assist me on the full book as well as up coming future works (of which I hope there to be many more of). I will be asking for your help on many weird, wonderful, and speculative subjects in which my creative brain needs someone with an academic mind for some realistic grounding in reality. However, as with all science fiction, creative license is always welcome. To give you an idea of the sort of things I may ask for your expertise on, I am currently looking for help on solidifying the technical biological makeup of an alien hive-parasite organism. I have the entire concept laid out, I know what I want the organism to be and do, I just need a science mind to help solidify the chemical attributes, to write out and explain what the organism is made up of, in a way that makes sense (Is it silicon-cabron based, for instance? People keep telling me it should be but I don't know what the hell that means — help!) Obviously, this is fiction and does not all of have to be based in fact, but it has to sound plausible, and most importantly believable to the audience. If you are not a biologist or biochemist but have expertise, please still apply! If you're based in or around London, it would be great to meet and discuss. Otherwise a call/zoom is fine. I'm aware this job offer is unorthodox, but I'd be happy to offer a payment of flat fee of £50 for this first project.
