Hope you’re having a wonderful day, I just came across your story, and I have to say, it really caught my attention. Your writing has a strong visual feel, and I kept imagining how amazing it could look as a comic or webtoon. I’m a paid commission-based artist working on comics, manga, webtoons, character art, and cover art. I’d love the opportunity to help bring your story into a visual format if you’re ever interested. No pressure at all, just wanted to share the idea. If you’d like to discuss it further, feel free to contact me on Discord (ava_crafts). Regards, Ava
