Anime North

Journal Entry: Tue May 21, 2013, 6:38 PM



I will be at Anime North this weekend from Friday to Sunday! I will be at the COMIC MARKET located inside the convention center, and here is a map of where my friends and I will be (:

I will be selling the regular stuff, prints (5 new prints this year, 3 not posted online yet!) and books (Carciphona volume 3 is new this year) so please come and visit us right by the exit of the Dealer's Room when you have time :D

**I also have a few 24x36 large, framed posters in GALLERY MOMIJI (in the same area) for auction. I signed one of them but not all in case people don't want stuff on their posters. If you would like a large framed version of my posters signed, feel free to bid on them and bring them to me and I can sign them for you ^^ **

Carciphona

Carciphona is my original manga series. It is available to read for free online and updates weekly on carciphona.com, and is published by myself in print whenever I finish a new book. Most of the artworks I do are for this series. Please check it out and if you enjoyed it, share it with your friends and those who may be interested! Thank you for all your support ^^

so i just finished powering through Carciphona, and just let me say this:

Wow.

you're kind of amazing. i've read my fair share of manga in the day, but outside of maybe one or two, yours is the best i've come across. now that may be because i'm super-feminist and all the no-nonsense, ass-kicking ladies make me warm and fuzzy inside, but i'm more inclined to believe it's due to other elements, like storyline, character designs, art quality, etc.

the excessive female badassity doesn't hurt, though. ;)

needless to say, i am looking forward to the continuation of your works! just a fantastic job.

Hi, shilin, I'm your big fan and I applaud you for your awesome unique drawings. I'm very impressed with your patience to work. I like most of your characters Blackbird. I wanted to ask do you have a Livestream?

it's unlikely I'll do that, but I'm looking into ebooks and other digital editions.

hope you don't mind my asking this question.

this is driving me nuts.

for an English language publication, why are you publishing the books where it has to be read from right to left?

I can see where this a makes sense for a Japanese script which is read from right to left, 1st page being the last page. English script on other hand is read from left to right.

I started this when I was younger and thought it was a good idea. It's too late to change now as it's not something that can just be flipped horizontally and fixed right away, and it'd be even more confusing if only the first few volumes are right to left ):

never too late to change things.

you can do that for #5.

Publishers change formats all time.

It shouldn't that be that much of a big deal.

Iv never really commented on everything, but I have to get this off my chest:
Your a great inspiration for me! :D
Iv read a lot of your interviews, realizing that you are for-filling your dream! I think thats really great! I have some characters who I also have had around for a long time and Im still thinking about how to create a story with them. But looking at how far you have come, Im really getting motivated!!!
Thank you for being so great!
I truly adore and love your art, as well as your manga! Please keep on doing what you love, its very inspirational!
