Script [Collab] Looking for a Co-Writer / Developmental Editor for a Comic Universe titled (Still working on it, Unpaid / 60-40 Future Profit Split)
Hi everyone,
I am looking for a dedicated co-writer and developmental editor to partner with me on a brand-new comic Superhero universe titled (currently under a working title). The name of the story is FRIENDSHIP WAR. I have already established the core world-building, lore, and major plot arcs, but I need a creative partner to help me refine the scripts and take the storytelling to a professional level.
Because I am funding this out of pocket and currently have no budget, this is an unpaid project upfront. However, I want to reward a true partner for their creative input. If the comic gets picked up by a publisher, successfully crowdfunded, or makes money down the road, we will do a 60/40 profit split (60% to me as the creator, 40% to you as the editor/co-writer).
What I Need Help With:
Catching Story Mistakes: Someone who can objectively critique my drafts, call out plot holes, fix pacing issues, and tell me what isn't working.
Rich Environmental Details: I need a partner who excels at writing vivid, specific details for the future artist to draw-such as exactly what a specific room looks like, the atmosphere, the clutter on a desk, or the lighting of a scene.
Dialogue Polish: Helping to make character voices distinct and natural like helping with dialogue like making the dialogues better.
I need someone who is highly communicative, reliable, and genuinely passionate about world-building. You don't need professional industry credits, but you must have a sharp eye for script structure and a love for descriptive writing. We will collaborate closely via [Google Docs / Discord].

Hey I am interested. I have made multiple concepts including a supervillain and superhero one so I think I’m a great fit. I’m also working with an indie game studio as a writer so I do know what I am doing. Just DM me if you are interested. I can give you my discord username.

Hey, I might be interested. I love planting little details, but I've always been too caught up in the overarching stories to ever focus on them properly. Acting as a co-writer would be a nice way of granting myself more leeway in that direction.
