Hi guys! This post format was inspired by missamyanne (missamyanne). I really like how they structured their post.
introduction: Tell us a little bit about yourself
Hello, my name is Mary. I’m currently a graduate student with a Bachelors in Business Management with minors in professional writing and IT (USA). Business, tech and management is my speciality as I’ve worked with fortune 500 companies, in the US, for years. I saw this because with this project and others on my production line I do plan to make income from it.
I’ve always been a lover of stories, anime and just plot. Writing has always been a hobby that grew with me, starting with binging Wattpad, AO3, Quotev and etc. to writing fanfics, to creating my own projects (books/graphic novels/Webtoons/Web-Series). Some of you may recognize my old story that had blown up on WEBTOON before I, regretfully, deleted it {Born to love, Built to Die}, 100k+ reads is blown up to me 🤭.
Project Details / Pitch / Sample
I’m back with a new fantasy story that I am writing for Webtoon.
The outline, world building and character creation has been done. Scripting for the first half of the story has been done and I currently estimate this to run 115-145 episodes on WEBTOON. So this is a long term partnership.
**Paid or non-paid? Collaboration? Partnership? **
I would prefer to collaborate/partner up and split proceeds, but I am realistic and open to paid collaboration. I cannot draw for the life of me, my skill lies in writing but unfortunately all my work leans towards visuals, which is why I am looking to bring an artist in. I am looking for a Manwha type art style and attached is what I’m looking for in this project.
I will provide the script which is formatted for visualization and guidance for each chapter. We’ll work together on each thing until we both have an understanding on how the other works and what we want things to look like.
If the artist is interested in partnering up on this then proceeds would be split 60/40 from webtoon {60 to artist because art is harder than writing, in my opinion} and 50/50 on Patreon {as marketing can be expensive}.
However, if the artist wants to be paid, I’d be able to pay $50-100 (USD) per webtoon chapter. If chapters are really really long I’d be open to paying more, we can negotiate). I’d love to pay more but currently I am on a budget, once things change, I have no problem increasing pay. With this option, the proceed split would change.
Skills I am looking for / what you are looking for
I need an artist who is creative and isn’t afraid to voice their ideas/opinions. I have very specific ideas but always very open to the artist's input. You know how art works and the visual aspects so I trust your judgment. As stated before I do like the manhwa art style.
Schedule/scale (Deadlines, the length of the work, etc)
With the paid artist, I would like 1 chapter a week or every 10 days. I see this as me putting in an order for my work so I prefer a realistic timeline. But I can understand how life happens so I am not strict on it.
If you are open to a partnership, I am more flexible with time as you are having to spare time with this. So starting out I would hope for at least 2 chapters a week but minimum 1 is fine with it. However, the slower the release the longer I would have to stockpile it. But on the bright side it gives me time to confirm marketing plans and strategies, by the time the series is released it should have at least an interested fan base.

This story and resources are currently going through a copyright process so it’ll be a little bit before I can share info and start everything. Copyright was a problem which caused me to delete my earlier story from webtoon, I don’t enjoy people stealing my work.
Extra: Here is a scene from the story to give you an idea and hopefully interest you!
This is straight from the base script and isn’t formatted for visuals. My formatted script breaks things up into panels and scenes, etc:

Scene: The Night of the Deal Gone Wrong
The alley was too quiet. Jadyn’s shoes clicked against the pavement, the sound echoing in the oppressive silence as she followed Katsuo through the narrow corridor between warehouses. He’d been on edge all evening, barely speaking, his usual calm replaced by a simmering tension that made her skin crawl.
“Why am I here?” she asked, lowering her voice but unable to hide the frustration in her tone.
Katsuo glanced back, his dark eyes scanning her for a moment before returning to the path ahead.
“Because if I leave you behind, you’ll try to follow me anyway.”
“That’s not an answer,” she shot back, though her pace quickened to match his. “You said this was just a meeting. A ‘quick conversation,’ remember?”
Katsuo stopped abruptly, turning to face her. He was close now, the faint scent of his cologne cutting through the cold air. “Things have changed,” he said, his voice low but firm. “I need you to trust me tonight. Can you do that?”
Jadyn swallowed hard. Trust wasn’t easy, especially not here, in the shadows of his world, where every step felt like a gamble. But the way he looked at her—steady, almost pleading—made her resolve falter.
“Fine,” she said finally, her arms crossing defensively. “But if this is one of your ‘Yakuza things,’ Katsuo—”
“It’s always one of my Yakuza things,” he interrupted with a rare smirk, though the humor didn’t reach his eyes.
Before she could respond, the sound of an engine rumbled in the distance. Katsuo’s posture shifted immediately, his hand moving to the small of her back as he guided her toward the shadows of a nearby loading dock.
“Stay here,” he said, his voice now clipped and urgent.
“Katsuo—”
“Jadyn,” he cut her off, his tone brooking no argument. “Promise me.”
She bit her lip, frustration bubbling to the surface. “Fine. But you owe me dinner after this.”
He allowed himself a brief smile before stepping out into the open.
From her vantage point, Jadyn could see the black sedan that pulled into the alley. Four men stepped out, their movements sharp and deliberate. Katsuo approached them with his usual air of calm, but even from a distance, she could see the tension in his shoulders.
The conversation was too quiet for her to hear, but the body language spoke volumes. One of the men stepped forward, his voice rising in agitation. Katsuo didn’t flinch, but his hand hovered near his jacket, where Jadyn knew he kept his blade.
Her chest tightened. Something wasn’t right.
Then it happened—too fast for her to process. The man lunged, and Katsuo sidestepped, his blade flashing in the dim light as he disarmed him in a single fluid motion. Chaos erupted.
Two of the men drew weapons, and Jadyn’s body moved before her brain could catch up. She darted from her hiding spot, her heart pounding in her ears.
“Jadyn, no!” Katsuo shouted; his voice sharp with panic.
But it was too late. One of the men noticed her, his attention shifting just enough to give Katsuo the opening he needed. He moved like lightning, disarming the man and slamming him against the sedan in a single, brutal motion.
“Get back!” Katsuo growled as he turned to her, but his command was cut short as one of the remaining men grabbed her from behind.
Jadyn reacted on instinct, her elbow connecting with the man’s ribs. He grunted in pain, his grip loosening just enough for her to twist free. But before she could fully break away, a cold, metallic sensation pressed against her temple.
“Enough!” the leader barked, his voice ringing out over the chaos.
Katsuo froze, his blade still in hand. His eyes locked on Jadyn, and for the first time, she saw something she’d never seen in him before: fear.
“Let her go,” Katsuo said, his voice low but deadly.
The man holding Jadyn laughed, the sound grating and cruel. “You think you’re in a position to negotiate?”
“You don’t want me to start negotiating,” Katsuo replied, his calm veneer slipping just enough to reveal the fire beneath.
The leader sneered. “Drop the knife. Now.”
Katsuo hesitated, his jaw tightening.
“Katsuo,” Jadyn said, her voice trembling despite her best efforts. “It’s okay. Do it.”
His eyes met hers, and for a moment, the rest of the world seemed to fade. Then, slowly, he dropped the blade, the metal clattering against the pavement.
“Good,” the leader said, a cruel smile spreading across his face. “Now, let’s have a little talk about loyalty.”
As the men closed in on Katsuo, Jadyn’s mind raced. She couldn’t let this happen—not like this.
The scene fades to black as the sound of approaching sirens echoes in the distance, leaving readers desperate to know what happens next.
