GUILT|PLEASURE

Belated Happy Lunar New Year! Hope the year of the Dragon had been good to you so far! Here’s a brief update on the goings-on:

Comiket  As you may have noticed with the illustration - we did place a submission for JUNE/ORIGINAL at Summer Comiket.  We will be publishing pre-ITW timeline doujin, focusing on a young Katsuya while he was assigned to NYPD.  We’ve decided on completing New York Minute - you can read the unbeta’ed draft of the beginning here: http://kichiku-neko.livejournal.com/749.html .  The short story will be included with 24 page manga detailing the X-Mas date.

The doujin will be published in English/Japanese; with copies made available in US catalog.  It will be rated R18, promise.  We will know the final word on making the roster in March.

Libre  G|P will be doing the Cover for August 2012 issue of BeBoy Gold (out 28 July).  We are not allowed to show the work-in-progress or final print until the official release, but we promise Jo will make Shinohara and Asano super sexy!

ITW vol. 1 is also tenatively scheduled to be out in Sep-Oct time frame.  It will contain chapters 1-6.

DMI  Final wrap for the manga’s turned in a week ago.  The manga will contain chapters 1-5.   It’s still on schedule to be released in late May.  There’s tenative plans for a ITW1 launch event at Fanime (www.fanime.com) where G|P will have a presence in the Exhibit Hall.  More details when we have it.

And finally…. ITW6 is on hold until Jo clears 2 major commercial deadlines.  We are still aiming for mid-Feb completion.

That is all for now! Drop us a line any time if you have questions!
