All the past things I have written are really only things I would like. So not much use letting others read them.

Well, nobody can make the decision to contribute or not for you, but all I can say is you'll never know if you don't try. *shrug* You know how to reach me if you ever change your mind about submitting.

Well, thank you! I'm glad that at least some people don't feel like it's an incomplete story.

Well, it honestly depends on how much of the work you do.
Raso719, for instance, had no desire to put in the time and effort to adapt The Invisible Girl into comic format. Since I really liked it and thought it would make a good story, I asked for and received his permission. So I'm credited as the writer, and he's credited as "based on a story by."
On the other hand, if you do the bulk of the work, it's your baby; I'm just the guy who does things like correct your grammar, make image descriptions clearer, or tighten up dialogue. For example: anyone who's seen Captain Ash around knows that English isn't his first language. So when he submitted the script that eventually became The Crystal of Size, I had to put in a not-insignificant amount of work due to the kind of stuff you often get when someone's writing in their non-native language. But he's still credited as the writer, because it was his idea and he wrote the first draft and had input on subsequent drafts.
TLDR: If you send me an actual script for a full 15 page comic, you're the writer. If you just give me an idea, or permission to adapt something of yours, I'm the writer and you're the "inspired by."
