Our friends working in Japan, Barbara and Todd, sent us their latest newsletter about their Japan adventures today. I was grinning the whole time thinking, who would have guessed five years ago when the four of us were sitting around talking about anime and rat & I were not that interested at the time (and laughing about the silliness of dbz) we would be where we are now, basically entrenched in quite a bit of it and becoming more and more each day. I know if someone would have told me I would be active on maillists, drawing fanart, reading and betaing fanfic, especially anything dealing with dbz, and eating Pocky I would have laughed in their face.
Thanks: --> to Lia, my sensei, who has inspired me to draw again. I
wouldn't be doing this without your support, Domo Arigato!
--> to Talon, for sending me her fabulous fics, inspiring me with her writing to draw my first
illustration for a story and actually liking what I drew.
--> to Dasia, for her words of encouragement when drawing her original chara.
--> to Joules, a wonderful epic fic writer, for liking my art enough to want to post them with Talon's
and her own stories.
--> to Lutra, the other half of the epic team, for being so supportive.
--> to Jacque' & Becca Raddittzu, we met on eBay as bidder and sellers and now we are face-to-face
friends. You showed us the real DBZ with your fansubs. It's all your fault the house is full of
doujinshi! *LOL*
