No.
To put it briefly: ideas are easy, writing is hard. Most writers want to work on their own ideas, not someone else's.
If you want to see your ideas on a page, you are far better off learning how to write yourself. (Among other things, that should teach you why your hopeful plan above won't work.)
An excellent place to start, with some of the most sensible writing advice on the web, is here: http://www.pcwrede.com/blog/ She even has some posts scattered in there on this very topic, and why it never flies.

Lois McMaster Bujold:
In “The Assassins of Thesalon” Methani was unwillingly sundered and Penric thinks Tronio is likely to be as well since Tronio hasn’t accepted he did anything wrong. That implies if Tronio realizes & accepts he’s displeased the gods he might escape sundering? Or is he too “spoiled” to be accepted by a god in the short time before he’s executed? How does one become “unspoiled”, a lifetime of good works or another way?

I know SFWA ruled that Gentleman Jole and the Red Queen was eligible for last year's Nebula award because of the ARC sale in 2015. Has there been a ruling regarding Hugo eligibility for this coming year? The voting period will soon be upon us and I'd really like to know.
