I believe I've decided on something.

I want to hire someone to work on the art for my novel.

When I say "hire", I mean on a case-by-case basis. But I need help with certain things, like landscapes, maps, characters, etc. I have the images in my mind (and some on paper), but they aren't cleaned up and they sure aren't professional. Not that I AM a professional yet, but I sure would like to be able to have a clear image of what I'm doing.

So this goes out to anyone. I'm a poor college student, so I couldn't afford much. But I'll help pay for the cost of necessary supplies (at least what I think is reasonable for the output) and time put in. If it takes someone a month to create a map, and all I get is a scribble, I think 25 cents might be paying too much. But if it happens within a week and I feel like I'm looking at a map of the world as drawn by scientists, I'd probably feel like paying at least 40$ as a LOW estimate. I'd probably pay more, but again, poor college student. So I'm probably looking for someone in about the same situation, actually; wanting a little extra cash, but won't charge a bazillion dollars.

Not that anyone is going to take me up on this, but I thought I'd offer, at the very least. If you know anyone interested, give 'em a link here.
