Collection of short stories?

More of a poetry/short story writer, but also an artist.

[Euphorie]

We are probably going to start with shorter stories, then progress to longer ones.

Here is a teaser for a story. You can make your own stories, too. And illustrate those you want. [you can do both jobs]

1. Tied Together
   Genre: Love, feels, regret.
   This is a twelve page short story about two people who were separated. The one does not know where her love has gone. She fears that her love does not remember her. This story is mainly told by an artists impression on what image they see through the story.

I am not quite sure what you are asking about.

[sarahrebecca58]

Sorry I made a communication error, I just wondered if there was a place for those more writing leaning still working on their art form in drawing.

To bad I didn't know the theme ahead of time, though it's part of my existing series now.:/

[Euphorie]

Oh, that's not the only story on the document, you can make new stories with different themes, this story is only a teaser. Writers are always welcomed, as well as artists... I am still a tad confused.

[sarahrebecca58]

Yea that answers it, thanks!:D

I just need to find out for whatever story I'll be doing, if I need artist pairing or if i need to do the art myself. In middle grade novels, usually the publisher pairs you up with an artist. (Evidently assuming the creator isn't an artist.)

I'll join if I can collaborate with an artist.^^

Hi! Just adding another question to this topic because I'm really intrigued. Is there a time limit on entering as a writer and also creating the short story? Because right now I'm in the middle of my exam period and won't be finished till the 25th so I don't really have the leisure of creating a story at the moment.

Also wanting to know the same as Sarahrebecca58 if we will be partnered up with an artist or will we have to find an artist of our own? Because I'm not really at the best of my art as of yet

[Euphorie]

We don't have a time limit but stories will close off on artists and writers once there are enough working on a project.

There are currently 4 artists [plus a few writers who can draw]. The artists will draw the story. However what we will be doing is having multiple artists working on the same story. If you want to have one consistent style. I think that could be arranged, but the focus of our group is to have multiple artists and writers collaborating [to split the work]

[williamjbowles]

So this is going to be a collection of shorter pieces rather than one big story? I think that's a good idea. A few people can work on a small project better than many people can work on a larger story. Too many cooks spoil the broth, as they say.

Sounds interesting. I'll definitely look into it.

[sarahrebecca58]

Are you looking for a specific style? If I joined, my current art ability is limited. Like I'm not very good with manga style or cartoony, and distance is a struggle.

[Euphorie]

@williamjbowles There will be some big combined stories as well short stories.

@sarahrebecca58 There is no specific style we are looking for, just good sportsmanship and dedication.

[sarahrebecca58]

Oh I'll note unless I'm drawing based on my poems, I have a really hard time with endings. Allot of my while, while it just stops, can conceivably go on forever and ever like a TV series.

I hope that doesn't throw a wrench in anything?

[Euphorie]

We are looking at endings in sight. Other writers can help to brainstorm good endings. We can help out (I have the same problem, too )

[DoubleSea]

I like this idea, it sounds fun!

[sarahrebecca58]

Silly question, but are children's stories OK? I have a few in my own line up later.

[Euphorie]

@sarahrebecca58 Any genre of story is fine.
