Here are six pages from a dramatic adventure called MAROON
​
Remember, there isn't any one specific way to write a comic book script. This isn't how
everyone writes scripts, but it is the way I write them. I tend to offer detailed descriptions and engaging dialogue, while trying to consider the notes and the opinions of the artists, while still playing to the artists' strength.
​
In this case, the artist excelled at atmospheric, supernatural artwork - which is why she was so perfect for this script!

PANEL 1
Establishing shot – it's a small modest looking home with a straw roof at night. In the extreme foreground, a foreboding man with long black hair and a dark hat and overcoat stands watching the house.

MY FEES FOR WRITING:
​
$8.00 per page - This if I'm turning YOUR plot into a usuable script. You give me the general outline for who these characters are, what needs to be happen, the main plot points, and how many pages you would like the script to be. I'll stay in touch with you with any notes I might have (due to pacing, should it be shorter or longer?) until we finally agree on the final project. I charge $8 per page, plus credit as the story scripter, with yourself credited as the plotter.
​
$15 per page - this is if you want a script written for you to work from, but you have no idea whatsoever what the script should be about. Maybe you have a general concept of the number of characters, the genre and a basic direction you want the story to go, but that's it. I charge $15 per page, plus credit as the story's writer.
​
Bonus Special! - Get a full finished script for $400 ($100 due immediately, $300 due when and if the book is finished and funded on Kickstarter.)
​
Take one of my scripts and run with it! I've written scripts for two mini-series that just never came to full fruition because my skills in both professional sequential artwork and promoting a series just aren't my strong suits. But maybe they're yours!
• $100 advance for a six-month exclusive rights to the script of your choice.
• Rights revert back to me after six months if the book has not been picked up by a publisher or has not entered an active crowdfunding campaign. I'll be willing to extend the deadline if we do have some positive work moving on it.
• A remainer of $300 will be due should the project either successfully fund on Kickstarter - if a publisher has picked it up, the final fee will be due upon payment of the project.
