Hi all, finally some time for the updates in my life!
Firstly, I’m halfway through the “In Odd We Trust” sequel, called “Odd Is On Our Side”. It’s still going to be out just before Halloween in 2010, so there’s little point in talking about it now, when it’s not even Halloween 2009. I’ve also finished a series of short one-shots (in May) for a book called “Boy’s Book of Positive Quotations”, which is exactly as it says – a book of positive quotations. It’s not yet out on the shelves as far as I know, but I’ll post something up when it is.
Yen Plus Anthology: What’s really post-worthy is that I have a 33-page short story called “Forget-Me-Not” coming up in the July edition of Yen Plus, the manga anthology from Yen Press. It’s a story set in Mythical Ancient China, and concerns the adventures of a “Scent Merchant”. To find out what that is, read the story! It should be out in stores this month.
Here are the first 2 pages of the story, and some concept art of the “Scent Merchant” himself.

This story was finished way back in January, with the creative process having started in September 2008. I guess most people might have guessed by now – this means that the Yen Plus anthology is accepting short story submissions, of about 30 pages in length, and has been planning to for some time. Buy the July issue to find out more!
