My Bio
Hi, I'm a screenwriter who is working on a concept for a high fantasy graphic novel. I came onto this site looking for a collaborator.

The story is a high fantasy adventure about a young nobleman who has gone on a self-destructive quest after being jilted by his betrothed. His ship gets lost in a storm and he is captured by an evil, exiled queen who forces him to become her agent and infiltrate the city from which she was exiled. Romance, swordplay, sea battles, masquerade balls and flying horses galore!

I have completed an outline and am looking for an artist/collaborator to put together some finished sketches that can then be pitched to publishers. We don't have to do the whole book.

Contact me if you are interested either through this site or by writing peter(at)davidsonllc.us.

I contacted an amazing artist named Julie Dillon (http://jdillon82.deviantart.com/) to see if she had any interest in helping me work on my graphic novel concept.  Unlike many other artists I have contacted, she actually answered, with well-thought out responses to my request.  Better yet, she sent me a link to an essay by the artist Stephen Bissette that really helped me understand the task I was laying out for my potential collaborator.  It's here (http://srbissette.com/?p=13107). The bottom line is that even though the idea for the story is mine and I think it has great value, as the writer I would be putting forth 1/4 or less the effort

I've been on DA for more than half a year and not one person has so much as asked about the story I want to turn into a graphic novel, and for which I am looking for a collaborator, so I should probably expand my pitch. It's a high fantasy adventure about a young nobleman who has gone on a self-destructive quest after being jilted by his betrothed.  His ship gets lost in a storm and he is captured by an evil, exiled queen who forces him to become her agent and infiltrate the city from which she was exiled.  Romance, swordplay, sea battles, masquerade balls and flying horses galore!

The wonderful ErosArts answered my challenge and described my personality through my admittedly blank profile.  I have accepted his challenge to post his answers in my journal.  I am also posting my comments to his comments .  So now, finally, this journal is no longer empty. 1. Tell you something I learned about by looking at your DA page for 13 seconds. EA:  You are not easily impressed by things because they are new. You stand by classics. 2. Tell you a colour you remind me of. EA:  I'm gonna give you gray. 3. Tell you my first memory of you. EA:  A couple of comments about six months ago when you started watching me. 4. Tell you wh
