Graphic Design with Short Stories

I’m putting together a small showcase that pairs eye-catching graphics with original short-form fiction. I need a versatile creative who can handle both sides of this project: • Graphic design: Produce visually compelling layouts and illustrations that match the mood of each story. Clean, print-ready files are a must, and layered source files (PSD, AI, or similar) should be included for any future tweaks. • Creative writing: Craft a series of short stories—fresh, engaging, and no more than 1,000 words each—that inspire or are inspired by the graphics you create. Tone can range from whimsical to dramatic as long as each piece feels cohesive with its companion artwork. Everything should be original work free of copyright issues. Clear communication and the ability to iterate quickly will be highly valued; I’m happy to give prompt feedback so we can refine both the visuals and the narration until they sit perfectly together. If you have a portfolio that shows both illustration and storytelling prowess, I’d love to see it.
