Hi!
I am happy to announce that I will attend to the Women in
Comics Con, and my new (thin) book “Go! New York Journey vol.1” will be
available there!
"
Go! New York Journey
(Susume! NY-dou)" is a well-received manga strip that has appeared
in the free paper NY Weekly Japion for over 10 years. The
original text is in Japanese, as it is aimed at (Japanese) newcomers to the NYC area. The storyline is all that is
weird, funny, and fun about NYC from a Japanese person's point of
view. Some of the strips might be hard to understand because of the
cultural setting, but if you have ever spent any time in Japan, you’ll
appreciate the manga from an additional angle. The vol.1 is excerpted
from July, 2003-August, 2006, Weekly NY
Japion.
You
can pick up new issues of the Japion free paper every
weekend at most Japanese grocery stores
and restaurants in NYC, Boston, and the DC area, to read the latest
" Go! New York Journey.”
Thank
you!
