CLAIR Forum

Last year, I was asked by CLAIR (Council of Local Authorities for Internationalization, the organization that runs the JET Programme) to write an article about my experiences on the JET Programme and the influence the JET Programme had on my post-JET life for the JET Plaza section their publication, CLAIR Forum.

I talk about my 10 year journey as an animation school dropout who went on JET in 2002 to an illustrator/comic book artist returning to Japan in 2012 to exhibit at the International Manga Festival.

If you’d like to read the article, the PDF can be download here (the English version is on the 3rd page).

Or you can read/download the whole June issue of CLAIR Forum from the CLAIR Forum homepage (Japanese).

Here’s a link to all the JET Plaza articles on the JET Programme website (English).

Hi folks, just a reminder that the Toronto Comic Arts Festival (TCAF) is tomorrow (May 11) and Sunday (May 12) at the Toronto Reference Library.

I’ll be selling The Long Kingdom #1 – both the regular version and a special TCAF Edition which is a limited 50 print run. And of course, I’ll be selling Life After the B.O.E. the Book, and some of my Zombies vs. Cheerleaders comics.

Kaigai Manga Festa

The Kaigai Manga Festa was a great success! Sold a few copies of Life After the B.O.E. gave away copies of Torja Magazine and met some fantastic people!

Didn’t have too much time to check out Comitia (the Festa was running concurrent to Comitia), but what I saw blew my mind. So much talent, and so much awesome manga! Seeing all that awesomeness makes me want to work even harder and make more comics.

Can’t wait until next year!
