Thanks for stopping by my website!
My name is John Yeo Jr. - I've written dozens of comic books and short stories, as well as four novels (so far) - and I'm available to do some writing for you!
Do you have a rough draft of a story that needs to be fleshed out? Do you want to share your artistic skills on Kickstarter, but the only thing you know is what genre you want to work in? Then....you need a writer.
Which is convenient, because I don't have the time to do sequential comics myself -- but I know how to write, and I'd love to help you get your dream project off the ground!

MY GENRES
I love working in comics - in fact, several of my novels actually began their lives as potential comic min-series scripts. But whatever genre you want to work in, I will give it my very best effort. I tend to juggle large casts, while injecting humor into my stories. My favorite genres are:
Super-Hero action (especially team books)
Fantasy
Supernatural
Suspense
Erotica
Accepting jobs for comic scripts only at this time
I mean, feel free to ask me anything - if the time is right and it's an intriguing project, you might be able
to sway me. But I'm just putting this out there to warn you that for the most part, I'm not seeking to ghostwrite your novel at this time. I already have novels of my own that currently take priority.
MY FEES FOR WRITING:
$8.00 per page - This is my fee if you want me to turn your general 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 until we finally agree on the final project. I charge $8 per scripted page, plus credit as the story scripter, with yourself credited as the plotter.
• Please note - because I get this question asked a lot -- you're paying for scripted pages, not for each actual page itself. Let me explain. If you request a script for a 22-page comic book, it's possible that when you print the script out you would get a document that was 35 pages long. Maybe the font was too large, maybe I used more than one page to detail the script for one single page of art. Whatever. The point is - if you commission a 22-page page script, and the document in reality ends up being 40 or more pages of files, you're still being charged for 22 pages.
$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.
