Introduce yourself.
Hi my name is GamerPrincessXI. I've been reading web-comics since middle school. I loved both Tapas and Webtoons since then. I'm a writer looking for an artist. Here's my first webcomic that I made with @amortelito's help: Nova & Max and examples of my script writings, here: A and B. I also do animation. Some of my work: My first animation and my second animation and finally the revision of my first.
Write down the type of genre you're going for.
Slice of Life/ Romance
Summary of Gilt Reeds:

Finally Trevor Reed:
Drawing and writing style or aesthetic.
I'm going for flat color and more animal crossing hands look. I will be hand drawing everything in my sketchbook and then sending it to you via Photoshop over email. You can use whatever art program suits you, I just use Photoshop as a thing to get my comic pages onto art boards. Anyway, if you don't know what Animal Crossing is, that's a game where you befriend a village of animals and paid off debt to a loan shark or shall I say Japanese raccoon, Tom Nook. Whom by the way has a tragic backstory in itself. Anyway, the game is pretty fun, here's the latest trailer to check out: The game, I've loved for a long time is finally on the Switch.
Is this is NSFW or SFW?
So, NSFW means not safe for work. Work is usually a business/corporate or generally like a McDonald's. Safe for work is safe for everyone. I'm not where my story falls since I do refer to sex but not in the more obvious of fashion. Well, sex in itself in a weird realm for me, because I've never had it. Never crossed my mind as a teen. So, I believe that it should be saved for marriage but that's a topic for another time. So, I'd say my story is safe for work with mild language and hidden sex refs. Nothing is really implied.
State how long the project will be.
My story is fifty chapters. Each chapter varies at the number of pages.
Include your sample writing or drawings.
My all of my writings are above as well as my animation, too.
In the end, I want this to be an enjoyable experience for both of us. Something we could look back on and say wow, I did that. Writing takes a lot of time, however I realize that art is equally as important takes time too. If you're willing to take a chance to work with me. Anything is possible. I know it's asking a lot. But that's why I'm here. If you want to help me, please contact me by private message or private message my Tapas account. Or you can reach at my email: pharlinj@gmail.com. Thanks for reading my really long post.
P.S.
Oh right: my story is an on going process. In fact I'm currently working on Chapter 3. But here's my original thread that has my story here, Gilt Reeds. This is the title that I made in Canvas:
Update
The title changed to Struck by you! I'm actually want to finish this comic.
Let me know if you are interested. Thanks! This is more of a continuance of the comic. It's easily findable on Tapas and Webtoons.
