Not that I'm on livejournal much these days, but just an update: I'm rewriting a metric crapton of Seven Seas manga (all their Alice Books, Crimson Empire, and some other stuff under a different pen name), I spend at least half my life on Tokyo Demons, and now a business venture I've been working on for several years is finally coming to fruition.

A letter to Alice in the Country of Heart/Clover/Joker fans who hate that Peter White rhymes.

Sorry, this post is very long. It's partially a response to a thread here. It's probably a terrible idea for me to do this, since I've been told by colleagues and loved ones that "haters gonna hate, don't engage with the Internet." But I believe in engaging from time to time. I actually care about fandom opinions, even though fandom has hated me so ( Read more... )

Post on writing

I’ve written on dialogue in manga before, and a lot of those rules still apply. But the two biggest points to remember are: 1.) not everyone speaks in exactly the same way but also 2.) most people don’t speak all that differently, either. Unless you’re talking about people on the extreme edges of the social spectrum, like a street punk vs a king, ( Read more... )

I've been buried very deep for a while, but I didn't want to publicly return until my current project was ready to go. So here it is: www.tokyodemons.com

I'm currently unemployed in the manga industry, since Tokyopop went under. *sniff* I've done editorial work and writing for other manga/anime companies in the past and I hope to do so in the future ( Read more... )

Yet another thing to start your morning off angry.

I really like reading activism blogs, but I don't feel qualified to write much activism stuff myself because I'm sort of new to complex social dynamics outside of "It sucks how everyone isn't born equal because societies are unjust." Well, I guess I've talked feminism and on female adolescence at Sleep is for the Weak through a bunch of reviews on ( Read more... )

Edit: I just found the best response to this trailer on Youtube:

so it's true!? I watched this commercial two nights ago at my friends house and I thought I was just really stoned and seeing things! Cowabunga!!!!

I just laughed so hard I think I pulled something.

Tokyopop and work news/yet more girl game ramblings

Since Tokyopop's been announcing their new lineup lately, I can actually confess to the new titles I have. I can't remember which of these I've mentioned in the past, but here you go:

Bloody Kiss
Alice in the Country of Hearts
Happy Cafe

They're all girly and awesome. Alice in Wonderland's been the most fun so far, mostly because it's an EXCELLENT ( Read more... )

I think I'm in love with Matsuri Hino.

liannesentar Aug 26, 2009 15:35

Matsuri Hino's the mangaka of Vampire Knight, right? And I recently read her slightly older romantic comedy, MeruPuri, and I was shocked that I loved it and actually laughed out loud quite a bit while reading it. Now check this out:

Quite possibly the best thing ever.

I love women in comics. LOVE THEM.

P.S.--I own that Zero bedsheet. And now you know ( Read more... )
