It does seem like dependable artists are harder to find than enthusiastic writers.

Ok folks, Chapter 8 is up. And I've finally stopped dithering around establishing the characters and gone into a bit of Kung Fu - you know, that part of the Wuxia equation.
Chapter is a bit long but, by the end we'll have a duel, a 2 on 1 duel, and rumours of a hidden manual.

try scouting some colleges, you can find some great talent and commission for those people would be considerably less since you can exploit the fact they are still students
For whoso comes amongst many shall one day find that no one man is by so far the mightiest of all.

sweet, I think maybe I'll start this weekend so I have a good start to be able to more adequately 'slack off' at work.
I do have a question for you. How does having your book online like this work? Are you able to make money by doing this or are you simply donating your art to the public? Do you like having your book online?
For whoso comes amongst many shall one day find that no one man is by so far the mightiest of all.
Right now it's donating my art to the public only. The first draft is FULLY free and will continue to be fully free in perpetuity, as will the second draft.
It's a first draft - it still has typographical errors in it. I wouldn't ASK for money.
I do get enough ad revenue from project wonderful to cover the cost of online advertising but that amounts to about. $0.01 a day.
When the 1st draft is finished I'll be revising it, reposting the 2nd draft, revising it again and putting the 3rd draft out as an e-book and a print-on-demand paperback.
Then I might make a bit of money - if I'm lucky.
But right now I just figured - what the hell - it'll be some time before Walking the Radiant Trail sees the light of day since I'm going the conventional publishing route and I got into the whole writing thing because I like to tell stories. Might as well just tell one.

So far it has been amazing fun - and I've been happier with this story than anything I've done previously.
Oh, and the webnovel provides an immediacy to the occasional piece of fan-mail which is awesome for the occasional late-night ego stroke.
