I am a published author who has begun work on my first children's book. The book is a middle reader for children ages 8-12. It's a funny book with some light fantasy/sci-fi themes and lots of goofy/weird elements.
I'm looking for an illustrator who can draw in a childlike doodle manner. The book features a 10 year-old narrator, so the drawings must look like they could have come from a kid that age. Most importantly, they must be funny drawings, so I'm looking for an illustrator who has a great sense of humor and the ability to get inside the mind of a weird little 5th grader.
Right now I'm only seeking illustrations for the first chapter of the book, to use as an example for when the book is shopped to editors later this summer.
This is a paid project with the potential to develop into something long-term if the book is published and serialized, which is the goal. I do have an established literary agent representing me, and I have publishing credits to my name, so hopefully we can make something happen.
