Okay, this is only vaguely fanfic related, but I might as well give it a 
shot...

The company I work for has finally decided, after dallying around for 
about a year, that they're not going to hire me permanently.  I'll be a 
temp for as long as I'm there.  While I'm getting some decent experience 
in programming, it's not my dream job.

With all of the ideas I have for original sci-fi stories, I thought I'd 
take a stab at writing a sci-fi role-playing game with one of them.  I 
know what I'm getting into; I know it's going to be a *mess* without a 
huge team effort, like the big-name game companies (like Interplay, 
Bethesda and Sierra) have.  I haven't ever written a published game 
before, but I'm going to teach myself how if it kills me.  Er, I'm going 
to try, anyway.  There's just one, niggling problem.

I cannot draw to save my life.

Well, that's not entirely true.  With some effort, I might be able to do 
some crude sketches of spaceships, etc., but I know my talents don't lie 
in that area.  Especially not in drawing people.

I'm looking for someone who *can* draw, to be blunt.  Preferrably in anime 
style.  Hopefully, they won't mind doing at least part of the artwork (I 
don't know how much I'll need, yet, but I do have a general idea), and 
won't mind the sci-fi theme.

Oh yeah.  I have at least a couple of game ideas, so if you don't care for 
one, we can work on the other.  :)

Contact me via the address below if you're interested.  Nothing will be 
happening for at least the next few months, while I learn how to do 
32-bit DOS programming (and find the cash to buy Watcom C++), but I want 
to throw out a feeler early.

In the meantime, I'm going to amuse myself by writing an email client.  ;)
(I kid you not!)
