I'm here obviously looking for an artist, I'm trying to get published but it's exceedingly difficult attempting to do so with just a script. So I'm wanting to find someone to work with on one or more of the projects I have underway, we'll be trying for submissions to publishers but if we're unsuccessful then I would like to take self publishing as an option, so anyone with any experience in the field would be great (though it's not necessary). I'd prefer someone based in Glasgow, Scotland like myself, the UK at least, but again it's not completely necessary just prefferable. I'd like to find someone for a long term working partnership so if you end up wanting to work with me and vice versa then I'd be happy to work on some of your own ideas, if you have any, that are in need of a writer, or we create something entirely new together.
As I've said I've got a couple of different projects so different styles are all welcome, and if there's one idea you're not keen on working on then perhaps I have another for you. There are a couple of original graphic novel projects and at this point one longer running series.
In terms of what to email just give me your name, a bit about yourself, your style/influences, the kind of projects you prefer to work on (eg. genre) and samples/links of your work. Then from there if I feel we would work discussions would begin over the projects and which, if any, you are interested in.
This is a not a paying job, I am looking for a working partnership just incase you've not picked up on this yet.

A brief bit about the projects so you know whether you're interested in them before emailing me.
