So, if you are in some other parts of Malaysia, you can still get your copy of My Manga by emailing a request and your contact details to us, and we will mail it straight to you! Not for free of course! ^^;
It is RM1.00 for postage and RM8.50 for My Manga, so do the maths and Wang Pos Laju it to us or bank-in at our account. (Its the same one as JMC)
^_^
Oh and those of you who want to submit to the My Section, send it to
with the section title, (i.e. My Creation/My Fan Haven) followed by the TITLE of your artwork.
Looking forward to more of your artwork and stay tune!
Ja!

What's Rei been up to lately...


Uryaaa! JMC Mangaka from Penang!
No, contrary to popular believes...I'm NOT getting married (yet) and not in the throes of being in love or something (which some said are one of the more popular notions of disappearing momentarily...)

I DID took a break for a while and was up in Penang for an early Qing Ming. The best part is, I get to meet one of the JMC mangaka from Penang!

Penang in many ways can be considered my second "childhood" home as my sister and I used to stay at our grandparent's during the school holidays.

She's a great lass, well articulated with a competitive and genuine "samurai" spirit to match and YES, she's gearing up for the international Kodansha Manga competition as well, so watch out minna! Like all aspiring junior creators, she's passionate, dedicated and constantly looking out for ways to improve her techniques and art.

We shared about our anime/manga interest, our ideas, dreams etc and found out that we shared some quirks in common. At least, I don't know anyone else who actually buys Makoto Shinkai's Voices of the Distant Star MANGA version! >_<

What I really was inspired (and reminded about), is her views about manga as it is. She sees manga as the medium for expressing and bringing together all her interests her in art which includes architecture, story, anime, nature, to a single, unifying platform.

Kinda like what I see in animation...a medium that enables me to marry great character design, great art, good story and cinematography, music, etc.

Its always nice to know that you're not quite so alone in this. ^_^
As far as related news goes, in our upcoming issues of My Manga, we will be featuring the JMC Mangaka winner's as a cover story. So stay tune!
Rei






News about My MANGA~!!!!

Friday, March 13, 2009

Konnichiwa minnasan! What is (It's) MY MANGA all about, where to get it and HOW does the whole MY SECTION thing actually works!

Photobucket

And of course, there's quite a number still in the dark about My Manga...like...I can't find it anywhere! Where do you buy it and why do only SOME people get it??

The answer is, this limited edition My Manga - JMC Souvenir Programme, was only available during the official JMC Awards Ceremony held 2 weeks ago on the 21st of February 2009. Only the lucky participants of the ceremony actually have this very special souvenir free copy.

Yeah, I can hear some of you going, "Darn."

BUT minna-san, all isn't lost. (We're not so mean-lah.)

If you want another copy for your friends (because we know that lending them out too many times can be disastrous), you can actually put in a special request and buy a copy by emailing, mymanga@transtel.com.my

If you are a JMC08 "alumni" mangaka, that would be easier.

My Manga will be due for a full release sometime in July 2009 (if all goes as plans)


My Section

MY MANGA - MY SECTION is officially open for entries.

Send them to mmmsection@transtel.com.my

Subject Title: My FanHaven / My Creation / etc _ (title of artwork)

HINT: My Section features works on a first come first serve basis, and the early birds are at a huge advantage, for they have already reserved a space for themselves in the July issue! Yep, that's correct. Omedetouu for those who took the first step!

The My Section of My Manga contains a number of different creative stages for you to debut and showcase your work. Whether it be anime/game/movie fanart, your own original artwork, interesting photos, quirky hobbies, etc!

We have been receiving suggestions here to add a comment or two on the artwork, and the good news is, yes...it has been considered, so keep your fingers crossed! Uryaaa!

More NEWS!

(It's) My Manga Blog is in the works, and will house all news, info and answers to your enquiries pertaining to My Manga while My Manga Online Beta and is currently being developed.


Those who can't wait to see My Manga hitting the shelves and becoming available, well, guess what, but that's where YOU can come in to make a difference.

Ok, so how?

By sharing your thoughts, ideas, suggestions and criticism, you can actually help US to move and grow in the direction of your ideals.

All good and constructive ideas are valued and recognised here at My Manga.

Occassionally the "Hey, you suk." comes in, so here's a note about those kind of comments.

That's fine with us...but you have to let us know, WHY in your opinion do we suk, where specifically do we suk and HOW you can help us suck out the sukkiness and become less sukky and if possible, WHAT are the specific suk-proof steps that we can take to prevent the sukkies from making our mag suk.

Because "Hey, you suk" sounds very vague, and that's where we need your input! We are human too, ne!

And of course, the BEST ONES (which is practical) will be selected and featured in our incoming issue or in our brand new online website currently in the work.

So how can you reach us?

You can email them directly to the team through mymanga@transtel.com.my , preferably a pseudoname if you would like to remain anonymous.

Of course, for the JMC08 mangakas alumni group, as you know, you have the privilege to reach Rei through her rei_international@yahoo.com email or her SMS....by stray from spamming yah....or she will ban you. >_< (Don't say that I didn't warn you minna...)


OTHER NEWS

I'm still gettting requests for comments on your JMC MANGA. For those who did not get their comments yet, you can shoot me a txt just to remind me. ^^;;; Gomen-ne!

Perhaps I shall just tone down my inner perfectionism mechanism to enable me not to be so critical (or long winded) in my comments while reading minnasan no manga.....yeah...I might just do that....

Striving to be perfect HAS its diadvantages in speed....don't you all agree, minna... T_T

There are also requests to post up the JMC Winners Trailer as well...don't worry minna, it will be up soon enough. Patience will pay off!

More to come soon....stay tune!

Uryaaaaa~!
