    In order to create artwork to upload to the site, you need to apply to be a professional artist. There are a few requirements in order to apply: you need to be at least 18 years old, you need to have an online art portfolio (that the Storybird staff can easily access without a password), and your portfolio needs at least 15 original pieces of artwork.

    To use artwork from the same author, click the "Image" button and choose one of the options. To use artwork from another author, search through the artwork, use the one you'd like, and write the chapter how you would have continued it from the other book. Once you're finished, you can merge that book into your original book as a new chapter and still keep the artwork.
