Topic: I'm absolutely desperate for collaboration.

Posted under Off Topic

I'm a sucker for visual narratives, comics especially. As long as I've been able to make stories, I've wanted to make comics. But I was cursed with Dumb Idiot Fool Hands, and am unable to create visually recreate things that I see in my mind's eye. My brain chatters endlessly with ideas that I'm unable to actualize.

I need to get something out. It can be anything, I'd want to come up with the idea together with the artist. But I don't have the money to hire an artist what they deserve. I don't want to take advantage of anyone for their time. They could sell it, and as long as I got writer's credit, they could keep 100% of the profit. Is that a thing that happens?

Forgive this rambling. It's late and my thoughts are drowning my brain. Does anyone have any recommendations of where I could go to alleviate this problem? With as many unique and beautiful people as there are in this world, it would go to reason that there's a visual artist out there somewhere as eager to create (or more!) but doesn't have any story ideas. But that feels selfish of me to assume.
