This sounds interesting. I would be game. If you are still, email me on londoneel@gmail.com
I'm sorry, I don't have Yahoo, so I can't IM you there.

actually, the reason that i dont want to play email tag anymore, is the tendency of having too many delayed correspondences, instead of working on the project in real-time, simultaneous conferencing.

how do you get a Skype account? i tried before, but i kept on getting refused.

i have to ask, what end result are any of you writers looking to achieve, when on a collaboration? i personally plan on exhibiting my work through a couple of available outlets, which would include; a) websites, b) possible publishing in minicomic hard copy form, for retail.

anyway, as i have mentioned to someone who has PM'ed me about what qualifications that are requested to be met, are as follows; a)no personal LTR's, overly-crowded social activity agendas, c) 90-100% concentration on the project at hand.

LTR?

And I'm looking, for now, to do a web comic. I don't yet have the capital to invest in a print version, although that would be an ultimate goal.

LTR=long term relationship(dating/married)

they tend to get in the way of a steady work schedule, so i look for people not involved in such things.

That's a weird requirement...many of the flakes I've known over the years have been single.

(I edited this because I was tired and worded it poorly - I don't think relationship status has anything to do with reliability)

well Jenna, it's been my experience-in too many cases-that people with LTR'S and other activities, take up so much of their time, that it causes the project's progress to suffer and/or decline.

Shame. I rather like your work, but it's clear that we'd be a poor match.

I guess I'm out too. That said, I have done quite a bit of work for hire (on time even) despite being a husband, father, and employee. I think you just may have just have had a few bad experiences. It is good to be upfront about what you're looking for though and I'm sure you'll find it.

Hey there. I added you several days ago on Yahoo messenger and haven't heard from you, so I figured the direct route was better. Hi there! I'm acekevin42 on Yahoo. I just got out of a long-term relationship and have an abundance of free time and scripts completed! Let's be buds.

i will help with your project first, to give an incentive for collaboration. my categorical preferences for stories are; police/vigilante, military, fantasy(conanesque), mystery, superhero.

Looking for an artist

Post by Ancientscroll »

I am drafting a script at the moment but I am interested to work on other projects. If you still need a writer, let me know (I'll check back here frequently). I prefer to get out of my head a bit and work with someone else on a new story.
