[Hiring] Looking for artist for graphic novel

Hello,

I am a writer and I have been working on an IP for around 11 years and have never had the money or courage to take the next step and actually work to complete an issue.
I am looking to create a single issue/proof of concept to pitch for independent publishing (Image/Darkhorse)

I am looking for a talented artist who specializes in detailed character design and fight scenes as this will be a fantasy/action series. I am heavily inspired by anime and Fromsoft aesthetics.

I am negotiable on price, but since I am new to this I don’t really know what’s fair and what’s not.
I would be willing to pay page rates ect.
I value communication over everything, so this is of the utmost importance to me as I am looking for someone willing to invest into this with me to make something EXCEPTIONAL.

With all that said, please let me know if you are interested and we can go from there.
Looking to start within the next month or so.

Thank you for your consideration, and have a wonderful evening (or whatever time you are reading this lol)

Am I going crazy? Still have Symptoms after a month.

Good evening everyone,
I have been a long time reader and always told myself I would post if it ever got bad enough.
I am a month into quitting Zyn cold turkey.

Gonna give you a quick recap, I was a smoker for many years in my early to mid 20s. I stopped after meeting my now wife and I am very thankful for that.

However, after getting into sales, I began to use Zyn back in 2022.
Since then, I have quit cold turkey twice with decent success.
First time I used 6mg for over a year about a tin day.
Quit for about seven months then I returned to it for about a year 3mg this time, but basically using it all day every day and putting two in at a time most instances.

After the second time, I decided I would quit for good and I ended up not using for over a year.
However, earlier this year in May, I had lost a close personal friend of mine, and this sent me spiraling, and I started to smoke cigarettes.
To avoid getting back into that nasty habit I jumped on 3mg’s again, telling myself it would only be a short period of time to help me cope.

I was using a tin a day for 2 1/2 months.
A month ago, I decided to quit cold turkey and this time would truly be the last time.
I had no cravings and was able to completely move past that however, this time I have been experiencing a lot of weird symptoms.

After completing my fourth week today, I am still dealing with pretty heavy fatigue.
Also dealing with headaches and what feels like dry eyes or eye strain.

I wanted to hop on here to see if anyone else has went through this.
I do have a doctors appointment scheduled tomorrow but overall, I am relatively healthy. 36-year-old male.

I figured the fatigue and headaches would only last a week or so, but this thing is still going strong.
Just looking for some insight and any reassurance that can be provided

Thanks in advance to anyone who reads and replies.

Have a great day.
