Summary

Leah Mercer is West Mount's Bad Girl. She gets into fights - sometimes for money - she swears worse than most sailors; she skips out on school, and spends most of her days recovering from the previous night's drinking escapades. Leah, however, is observant, knowing most of everyone's dirty laundry in West Mount. But unlike most people, she doesn't Lord it over you, not unless she's backed into a corner. So when her own little secret is uncovered by West Mounts Golden Boy, Leah will go to many lengths to keep him from uncovering the rest of the Nitty Gritty story behind who she really is. So with secrets on the line, drama ready to unfold, a player, gossip, fighter and a mysterious bad boy in the mix. Will anyone be able to crack her heart of stone, or will Leah Always be the Bad Girl?

Hi Orlaith Hunt,

I just finished reading your story "Always the Bad Girl" and I loved it so much. Your writing is amazing, and I kept thinking how cool it would look as a comic.

I really loved the bar/warehouse brawl scene in the final chapter, the way Leah throws herself into a no-holds-barred fight (sometimes literally for money) is raw and cinematic. It’s perfect for a comic because the action would read incredibly well in dynamic panels: dramatic close-ups on fists, staggered panel timing for impact, and wide splash pages to sell the chaos and grit.

I also loved the confrontation where West Mount’s Golden Boy uncovers Leah’s secret and she’s forced to scramble to protect herself. That quiet-but-electrified moment,  when her tough exterior cracks and emotional stakes spike, would be ideal for manga-style pacing: tight character close-ups, silent panels for tension, and a slow reveal that would hook readers visually.

I’m a commissioned artist, and I’d love to draw your story into a comic/manga. No pressure though, I just think your work would look awesome in comic form.

You can check out some of my recent work on my DeviantArt (Username - Ev3Verse). If you’re interested, please message me on Discord (Username - bennett_lol) so we can bring the story to life visually. I'll be waiting to hear from you!

Regards
bennett
