Look, this is a great thing you're trying to put together, but you can't do it without a reliable writer.
Name:Leavaros Dapple/Valens/Masq (whichever you want)
Experience:
Well, I'm writing two novels, one a Fantasy/Sci-Fi hybrid, and the oter, a Fantasy satire.
I write poetry constantly, and my forte is wriiting with humor and morals (such as Fruits Basket). I've written a few short stories, and could easily broaden my horizons to include manga. (Besides, that helps me learn more about writing anyway.)
I took a year of journalism in freshman year of high school, and have been critiquing all kinds of writing since I was in elementary school.
I'm in AP Language and Composition right now, and will go into AP Literature next year.
I've been a fan of manga/anime since first grade when I discovered Pokemon, and fell in love with the style after watching Sailor Moon, so I'm well equipped with knowledge of the strong/weak points of manga, and know exactly how to make yours shine.
Job:Writer

"Dreamweaver"
Weave me a dream, Dreamweaver,
Of Dawn's pink light and of cottony clouds.
Weave me a dream, Dreamweaver,
Of golden plains and of ancient oaks.
Weave me a dream, Dreamweaver,
Of richest Earth and slightest breeze.
Weave me a dream, Dreamweaver,
That I may find my peace.
Weave me a dream, Dreamweaver,
Of shining Sea, and of glittering sands.
Weave me a dream, Dreamweaver,
Of whitest dunes and of swaying palms.
Weave me a dream, Dreamweaver,
Of mellow waves and salty winds.
Weave me a dream, Dreamweaver,
That I may find my peace.
Weave me a dream, Dreamweaver,
Of changing Sky and of roaming clouds,
Weave me a dream, Dreamweaver,
Of Earth and Sea together at last.
Weave me a dream, Dreamweaver,
Of sunshine and moonglow as one,
Weave me a dream, Dreamweaver,
That I may find my peace.

"Luna's Lullaby"
The moon,
Dressed in luminance,
Attended by a thousand twinkling angels,
Shines her silver light into my window,
Gently penetrating the sheer curtains,
Cutting to my soul,
My heart of hearts,
Where the whitish glow,
Sings the sweetest lullaby,
Lifting me to the midnight heavens,
Where softest silver-kissed clouds
Drift peacefully on quiet winds.
And where the sun dreams,
So do I.
--------------------
"Lover's Prayer"
You are everything I can't be,
And strive to be,
And love.
And in my weak moments,
I envy you,
And want you.
But then I remember.
The way your hair flips,
At the end, regally.
The way your lips twitch,
When you speak.
The way your eyes twinkle,
When you laugh.
And I know,
That in my Heart of Hearts,
I love you, perhaps against my will,
But I love you even so.
And even if I can never have you,
Even if I can never hold you,
I will always remember.
And in my Heart of Hearts,
Whenever I think of you,
I pray a little prayer,
And send it on the winds,
That all the gods may grant it,
For your strength,
For your health,
For your safety,
For your love.
That you may be everything,
That I could never be,
And be it well,
For goodness,
For memory,
For you.
For me.
And for all of us.
And I pray,
In my Heart of Hearts,
That you find someone,
Who has done as much for you,
As you have for me,
That you learn,
As I did,
That reason and passion can be mixed,
That trust accompanies self-questioning,
That self-acceptance is the start of self-love,
That being open is the only path to true happiness,
And above all,
That love is never wrong,
Because it is the start of all good.
This is my prayer for you.

"What Matters Now"
Everything is different now.
If I try--really try--
I can feel the wind pulse,
And the sap flow in a tree,
And the rhythmic breath of someone near.
But they think everything is the same.
They must--because still they chatter,
Squabbling over the little things,
As life's majesty passes them by.
But not me. Never me.
I embrace the steady beat of Gaea's heart,
And Celestia's steady breath,
And the orchestra of a thousand souls,
Human and Beast and Wood,
And Stone and River and Mountain,
And Cloud and Sun and Moon and Stars,
And all that is.
Everything else,
All the little trivial matters
Matter not.
Not anymore.
Never again.
