First things first, the "good news", unfortunately, does not include anything related to the site. I apologize, but for the past several months, I've been lacking inspiration and motivation to get much of anything done in terms of design or scripting. I'm hoping that, come April, I'll get to coding the script for Intox as I'll finally be attending the nearby anime convention, AnimeDetour, here.

Secondly, the contest is closed and has ended about a month ago. The winners have been chosen and the prizes have already been sent as well. Again, I apologize for the total silence on my part. Thank you to all of the contestants who made the contest a wonderful success and many congratulations to the winners! The winners are Ongaku of Kakyoku in first place, Misaki of Wasurenaide in second place and Jayme of Captured Fragments in third place. Please visit their wonderful sites. ♥

Third (and just before I get to the good news), I've gotten a few new link exchanges since my last update. I apologize (again) for being late in their introductions, but please visit Tamaneko of Tamaneko Designs and Phoenix of The Forgotten Lair! Both sites are excellent sites and deserve a visit.

FINALLY, I'm not sure how good any of you will consider this news, but for me, this is the news I've been waiting ages to hear! On March 11, 2010, June Manga has announced that it will be releasing Yamane Ayano's Finder Series in the Summer of 2010!! All of us fans who have been trying desperately to find a copy of our own will only have to wait a little longer. Someone has finally picked up this title again, so we're almost there! The wait is almost over! I can't wait!!

And finally, along with my first ever anime convention, my good friend, Ebony and I (along with her little sister) will (hopefully) be attending Yaoi Con 2010 as well! More confirmation of this will be given in the next few months. For their tenth year anniversary, they'll be bringing Yamane Ayano back as the special guest. What an amazing year this is definitely going to be. ♥ Wishing you all the best! Till next time~

Thank you. :)

And don't worry for the lack of juice: last year (before opening Hakanai) I went on for more than 4 months without feeling any inspiration or similar to design anything. u.u

I had to read Love in Viewfinder and Crimson Spell' volumes #01 to feel the muse upon me. ^^

It's been so long since Love in Viewfinder was released in the U.S. that I had lost hope to get my hands on volume from Amazon or Barnes & Nobles - a used one would have satisfied all my needs.

But now a publisher is re-releasing the whole series again...whoopieeeeeee!!!!!!!!!! ^_____^

I can't wait for the volumes to be out, I'll order them immediately. =D
