Welcome back from the break! We join the 2 Karens & Co. while they are about to make a getaway from Laura’s city. But how easy will that *really* be? Let’s see…
In the meantime, something a little different:
Coffee Party’s 2019 book came out last weekend with Nao & the Gang in Tokyo. I mentioned before that there was a link with Back Office & Bata Neart and this years book, showing a cameo of two of the characters. However what I didn’t mention was a far more signifigant link.
If you look closely on the cover to the bottom-right you might notice a character signed “Kes”. That is none other than our very own Kessy Athena! That’s right, Kessy joined in on the Coffee Party this year and has added to more to the insane lore of our collective project 🙂
“Wait a minute!” You might say while pointing at me accusingly. “J’accuse Rawr! You never mentioned that readers here could join in on that!! I wanna join in!!” And you’d be right, I never did mention it, and I’ve been really bad at promoting Coffee Party. I’m going to remember to recruit more from here too, starting with next year 🙂 Everyone who loves to draw manga is welcome and Kessy certainly displayed that love of the art in this year’s Coffee Party.
If you are curious and would like to get a copy of this year’s book, I will make details available on how to do this. I might even do a competition to win a copy. Watch this space.
I do love the art, and now that I’m actually making money I should probably buy some books. Will probably start at number one rather than the most recent one though, unless that is somehow unadvisable?
Oh, and before anyone tries to do any recruiting with me, I have no idea how to draw. Other than technical drawings in strict 2D or in a computer aided manner. And the few times that I have tried to write fiction… well, a lot closer, yet really far to go.
Forget Mike, Karen. He’s doomed.
@08: Coffee Party is about a pastry girl who turns into a cup of coffee and is transported into the world of a manga when she’s spilled on a book.
And then it starts getting silly.
Soooooo… yeah, you can pretty much jump in wherever you want. 😉
