As an Affiliate Writer, you will create writing and narrative-related content within NISEI, including writing fiction pieces and working on card names and flavor text. This is an associate NISEI role that does not come with full NISEI team access. However, this role has greatly reduced responsibility and expectations, making it ideal for a person who is interested in collaborating directly with NISEI on fiction writing but does not have an interest or the time to work on the full scope of Narrative Team duties.

Due to the global nature of Netrunner’s setting and narrative, the Narrative team especially strongly encourages applications from countries that are traditionally underrepresented in cyberpunk writing and game writing in general.

Examples of tasks:
- Writing fiction pieces for any number of product releases, spoiler or announcement articles, or campaign products
- Brainstorming card names and flavor text
- Brainstorming concepts for art briefs

Essential Skills:
- High primary language competency. ESL writers are welcome, but require moderate English language competency.
- Interest in writing fiction with a high focus on tone, theme and thoughtful meaning
- Capable time management skills
- Very capable communication skills
- Previous writing experience is a major plus
- Previous experience with art and knowledge of art styles is a major plus for helping with art briefs, but is not required

NOTE: NISEI is a volunteer organization. This role is unpaid, as are all roles in the organization.
