Sword Princess Amaltea is on!!

Hey everyone, and especially my Sweidsh and Danish readers! Big news!!

I have now signed the contract with Kolik förlag and the official release of the first Swedish book of Sword Princess Amaltea (former called A Sword Princess Tale) will be in September 2013!!

New logo!

The plan to have it run in the Danish comic mangazine Comic Party is also official now, and I'm looking forward to this project so much!!

I have created a Facebook page for the project, please like it and follow the progress! I will put up pics and contests all through Spring and Summer!

So far I have done the whole layout sketches for book one, plus the story planned for all the three books. My editors Fabian Göransson (Kolik) and Dong Trieu (Comic Party) have given me valuable feedback and after some rounds I finally started drawing the manga about two weeks ago, or so. Now inking page 18 of chapter 1, and all the details make me sweat!
Here's a small sneak peek, more to come!

Last weekend, I went to J-popCon in Copenhagen, Denmark, together with Nosebleed Studio!
Our first convention this Spring, nice to be "back on the road" meeting fans and other fun people.
At Saturday, I held a Yaoi manga presentation, the same that I have held on other conventions such as UppCon and NowJapan.
I asked my sister Catarina to film me, since I was to hold the presentation in English so that I could put it online for all you people out there that hasn't had the chance to see it Live! Haha...

It's not only about the history of Yaoi manga, but also some theories about why young women like to read and draw homoerotica with gay guys.
I'm sorry for my bad English, I did my best... T__T

I really  L O V E  to do this presentation, because all the fangirls that come there seem to enjoy it, and often some of the listeners come up to me later on and tell me how it made them realize stuff, or how things I bring up in the presentation remind them of their own lives or interest in yaoi.


Okay, let's return to the manga!! Draw draw draw!
Thanks for reading!!!

Work work work~

Right now, I'm multitasking all week:

Mondays at Serieskolan, teaching the students everything I know so they can conquer the world out there!
Tuesdays at Malmö University, teaching sketching techniques. The diligent students follow my crazy gudelines so well, and they evolve fast! I'm impressed!
The rest of the week is a mix of:
...finishing my manga Hearts of Midsummer for Nosebleed Studio's next anthology
...doing economy papers for Nosebleed Studio, Wasabi Press and my own company
...sending books to printers and recieving them.
...detail-planning A Sword Princess Tale, my next big project!

 The diligent students at the sketching course at Malmö University.

As written before, I have reprinted A song for Elise and my Harry Potter doujinshi The Marauders and the Secrets of the Heart. The former is avaliable for purchase in Nosebleed Studio's webbshop, but the latter is only purchaseable at events or via e-mail correspondance with me (see contact), since it is a doujinshi and I don't want to upset J.K. Rowling too much. It is a non-profit production, but I still want to be careful.

 Here's a photo of the two fabulous books, fresh of the printers!

I look forward to have them on Nosebleed Studio's book table for sale at all the events we're attending this year (check the list to the right to see which ones).

But, what is really stressing me out right now is the short story Hearts of Midsummer for Nosebleed Studio's next anthology, with a Swedish theme. I'm still screentoning and the book needs to go to the printers on the 1st of March! I hope I'll make it!

Here's a little short description on the storyline:

Julia is forced to celebrate Midsummer's Eve in her home village with her childhood friend Dennis' family. They havn't met up in two years, and last time they did he confessed to her that he likes her. So embarrassing! What will happend when the meet again? Will this be a Midsummer's Eve she will always remember or just wants to forget?

I really need to finish this manga short story NOW! Because 1) I have to start drawing A Sword Princess Tale to make it to the deadlines, and 2) I want to send HoM to Ribbon as my third entry, hopefully before the deadline in March! So much work!!

Ok, back to the drawing table! Please email me if you are interested in the books!
