If you're interested at all in... y'know, having an artist do something original for you... I'd be willing to sketch some ideas out and show you. Just know that it may takes several weeks for me to finish anything... I'd just need some questions answered to help me get an idea... If you'd want to see examples of my most recent stuff, I can do that for you, just let me know. :D

I mean, yeah. I'd love to see what you have in mind. Art isn't my thing and like I said, I think my first idea is a little - well, let's just say I am interested alternative visions.
I would love to see some of your art.
Heh, I have to tell you, my first thought was - OMG, she sketches too?
I've always loved your poems.
I am aiming for the middle of February for my publishing date. Is that do-able?

Heehee. I've been an artist as long or longer than I've been a writer. It was always more abstract when I was younger, but in the last several years or so I've gone into character drawing and anime/manga type pieces using computer programs and a tablet to draw digital art rather than solid media. I'll get some stuff uploaded to links you can check out soon, and then you can decide if you think it's right for what you'd like. And I won't be offended if you don't want to use me, I just thought I'd throw it out there. As for the time... Well, I can't make promises, but I can certainly try my damnedest! :D

This is where I plan on being published.
It occured to me that you might have as much or more use for this site than I do - check it out.
(And you might see something positive or negative about it that I don't :D )
You can also check out the kinds of cover page art (parameters for inserting pic which seem too much like Greek to me lol) they require.

Thanks again for the interest!
