Well for now I'm drawing/writing a huge comic book project. It's probably going to consist of about four books and the first one should be ready for publication this fall.
I'm also about to draw my first short story for an anthology comic book series.

I'm not getting rich from this atm but I'm enjoying it a lot none the less.

If you've got a good script and a good story I shouldn't think it too hard to find someone who would want to illustrate that shit.

Those are the only options you have dude. Contact people or do it yourself. That's the way it is.
It's tough and annoying sometimes, but you've just got to get out there with your shit if you want to get anywhere.
A lot of times you're going to get a "no" but eventually you'll get a "yes".
If "eventually" isn't soon enough for you, then, as I said, do it yourself. That's how I got started. I called a bunch of people and send a lot of e-mails. Then I got tired of getting a "no" over and over, so I decided to go ahead and start working on my own comic. Eventually I made contact with the right people and showed them what I'd done of my comic at that point. They liked it a lot and agreed to let me onboard. So now little by little stuff is starting to go the right way for me. These things take time work and dedication. That's all there is to it. Keep at it and you'll succeed eventually!

BB10, I don't have a lot to show just yet, since it's work still in progress, but stuff will start happening this fall.
And yes, comics are a ton of epicness and fun!

I finished university about two years ago with a Bachelors in Fine Arts, majored in Photography. I will be going back to school next year for another bachelors, this time in science, and major in robotics.

I have worked in various fields, mostly related in the artistic side. Photographer, animator, graphic designer, web developer, video effects, sound production, video editing, marketing administrator, art director, etc, etc. But none of these jobs would have been possible if it wasn't for my own aspirations and goals; school had little to do with it, and although I might have been able to get away without any schooling, it really helps you get a sense of culture and peer to peer networking.
