Long time no see... but at least it's not longer?
Anywho, 6 new pages for Ch11+cover and created a donater's corner.

I never really wanted to do this but I'm asking for donations to help keep the site up.
More info can be found here. All donators (no matter the amount) will receive a new 'thank you' illustration. Thanks to any one in advance if they decide to donate!
I'm hoping to resolve my problem as soon as I can so that I can stop begging for money =_=;;

Added a new 4 panel comic over at topweb comics. Go over here to vote and see it!

'3'

Ummm ...nothing exciting but I've updated with 3 pages. ^^;;

Feel free to add your thoughts to my last post. Thanks for the comments!!

edit: fixed up typo on pg7... lolol thanks for the heads up!

Questions

Mon, 13 Apr 2009 04:06:59 GMT

Sorry, this isn't an update post but since I have some time (though I really should be doing other things) I was wondering what you, the readers think.
Excluding updates (^^;;) what would you all like to see more of from this comic site?

Some ideas I had where:
- side stories involving other characters (Miyuki, Mako, Jiro, Karin etc)
- fan art contest (what kind of prizes would you be interested in?)
- comic tips and or a look in to how I draw my comic (you tube videos?)

Of course this all wouldn't work with out YOU, so feel free to put your two cents in! I'm open to any suggestions that you have. Thanks for any feed back everyone! :)

Sorry for the Fall/Winter hiatus~

I appreciate every one who'd stuck by and continued reading this comic, knowing the unpredictable updating schedule... Off line has been a new start for me and hopefully I can move along with all the changes!

Anyway, site updates:
- 11 new pages(ch10 pgs 27-32) and I started on Chapter 11 (pgs 1-5)
- uploaded some images to the gallery but I still have to upload the wonderful fan art I've recived over the years... always open to any new fan art as well! *hint hint* <- jk
- updated info page and archived Ch 1-7

Please vote if you like my comic! ^^ hmm... I wonder what happened to buzzcomic toplists? Seems like it vanished in to thin air? *sweatdrop*

Mon, 01 Dec 2008 06:07:27 GMT

As promised, 3 new pages up~ (Ch10 24-26)

Dunno when I'll be able to update again so I'll aplogize in advance if it ends up being a while! (-_-);;

><;;;

Wed, 26 Nov 2008 06:19:10 GMT

I'm sorry for being so LAME and not updating for a few months. (AGAIN)

(;3;) It's rather embarrassing but neither the less...
- 4 pages (ch10 pgs20-23) up~

I'm trying to finish this chapter before I move overseas, so I'll update again this weekend.

thanks for the wait!

Sun, 03 Aug 2008 09:00:27 GMT

- 6 new pages (ch10 pgs 13-19)
- new cbox/tiny chat message thingy installed (maybe just temp?)
- gallery/links under construction. I realized that about 80% of the gallery didn't work...many things need to be organized ^^;;

New picture of Toshi up at the buzzcomic vote page! :D

Also, you can always vote for me at Romance100~

Apology... again!!!

Thu, 24 Jul 2008 05:45:29 GMT

I feel really guilty and awful that I haven't been able to update so I apologize for not posting anything since my last update about this.

My work schedule has been really hectic these last two months and I haven't had much motivation/inspiration to work on the comic - as you can see. I'm also thinking of moving to asia this fall so preparations for that also has me a tad busy.

Anyway, the point is the comic is not dead nor am I ^^;;; I am planning to have an update in early August so please look out for that. I hope to have at least 5 new pages by then if not more. I'll try my best!!! Thanks for the support and for aways reading! (you seriously are all way too nice and I don't deserve you = I am so grateful! Thank you!!!! ><;; )

ps. batman:the dark knight was a great watch! XD;;

moved and update(finally!)

Fri, 23 May 2008 20:24:11 GMT

I'm sorry about the hiatus (yet again) and my awful updates. >_>;;

Firstly the site has changed to a new server and domain.
http://afuji.org/bm is the new url~
Be sure to change your bookmarks and or links! :D
Following the move, there is also 5 pages uploaded to chapter 10.

Secondly, I'll try my best to update more... yeah, I know it's something I say all the time. I can only say I'm sorry and thank you all for being SO understanding with me. Honestly, I'm really happy that there are people who still read this comic and give me support. Thank you all! (;o;)

Apology!

Tue, 25 Mar 2008 17:03:47 GMT

An apology for not updating the comic the past month. I've been working on things for Scon and such. Updates should continue again after I'm back from the convention.

A few of my things will be for sale at the Sakura con (Seattle, WA) art show. There's a new be mine group picture. The theme seems to be maid uniform/suits!? (I really don't know myself XD) Here's a small preview!

Please drop on by if you have the time! Many thanks~~!

any ideas?

Thu, 24 Jan 2008 09:37:43 GMT

- 2 new pages
- fan art of miyuki online!
- new sketch up at the vote page~
- I also joined in my friends romance 100 toplist! ^o^/

I'm sorry for the rushed pages yet again~
I'm having a tiny art block as of late, I hope it goes away soon! ><;

I'll be attending Sakura Con in Seattle WA this March. I won't have a table at the artist alley but I registered for a small panel in the Art Show! Drawings will be up for silent auction, starting at only $1.00 (I'm not very good at pricing...)

So here's my question: what sort of illustration would you be interested to see? A watercolor piece? Pencil crayon drawing? Any characters from Be Mine I should consider drawing? Coupling or just group picture...?
Or should I just go for the popular mainstream anime and draw fan art? XD;

EDIT
It seems that my site exceeded the monthly bandwidth, so the whole site won't be available online until next month. (you might be able to see it, but it's limiting access at the moment) T_T urgh. I'll try to see what I can do to limit this, or perhaps move to a different server.

an update (finally...)

I'm sorry for the long wait! >< The holidays and new year have been surprisingly busy for me. I hope everyone had a good winter holiday!

soul_mage sent me an great picture of Miyuki! You can see it over at her deviant page here. I'm sorry it took so long for me to see your message (I didn't even know you can send messages through lj!) ^o^ Thank you so much!!!

happy snowflake day!

rushed update!

Sat, 15 Dec 2007 10:13:58 GMT

- Ch10: Confession up with 2 new pages

So... rushed... I'm so sorry~~ =_=;;
I'll make sure to have a cover done some time later, but for now it'll just stay as it is.
Thank you all for waiting~

oh, it's not related to the comic but I updated my art site a while ago. Feel free to visit if you have some time to kill~! ^^

quick shout out!

Tue, 11 Dec 2007 00:59:17 GMT

I couldn't make an update last thursday but will try for one some time later this week.
Sorry for the delay but I'm still pondering on the title for chapter 10 and thumbnails for the first few pages.

So it's not a total loss, here's the past page for chapter 9, page 30.

Sat, 01 Dec 2007 06:05:03 GMT

- 2 new pages
- a copic drawing up @ vote page! (buzz comics) vote to see it~ :3

Have been pondering the idea to maybe pitch a story idea to some publishers. After being encouraged and inspired I think I want to give it a try, I've got nothing to lose! (...I think ^^;;;)
It's too bad I can't enter the tokyopop contest... I've had people suggest it but I can't! I'm a Canadian resident!! XD; There's the possibility of collaborating but I think I'd like to use my own story if I did enter a contest like that.

Anyway, wish me luck!

Another week goes by... so fast! @_@;; The chapter will end soon, but I hope you've all enjoyed the comic pages for this chapter. I changed a few things in the story since I actually started...
As much as I complain about how shoujo, fluffy and corny this comic is I AM proud of it. I like how it's going, I have fantastic and supportive readers and I just have fun drawing it. I hope you'll all stick by me till the end!

lol I update at such random hours of the night XD;
Persona 3 has me hooked! This game is so much fun~w

- fixed up the gallery

It's been raining so much here, it sorta drains one's energy away -v-;;

Regarding the fan art contest...to be honest I'm afraid to start and I don't really know why. I know, it's kinda weird after being so excited over it too ><; My apologies~! It'll have to be put on hold for a later date, and for now maybe I can work on the other 'extra' things for the site.

=v= fufufu~

Sat, 13 Oct 2007 04:11:52 GMT

- 2 new pages (Ch9:Pgs 13-14)
- 3 cgs in the gallery

My friend spacy (space coyote) drew this amazing picture that I just have to flaunt and share~

8D Isn't it great? *stares at it*

Fan art contest will be up shortly, I'll most likely make an different entry for it later though. If you have any questions feel free to ask, about this contest or anything else of course. ^^

lol nice boat.

- 2nd fav character poll ended a while ago, result pic here! I'll update the gallery sometime this weekend too ^^;

A big thanks to everyone who filled out the survey! There are a lot of things that I needed and want to work on, so it was really encouraging to hear your thoughts. You guys are awesome! I'll try my best to improve~

I think I'll try to organize a fan art contest starting next update. I'll try and get all the information by then, so look out for that! Hopefully I can get some nice prizes ready for it~ :D I'm excited about it!

Thu, 27 Sep 2007 17:28:59 GMT

- 2 new pages
- extra : comic survey~

If you have the time, fill it out so I can have a good understanding of what you really think of the comic. There's no option to add your name/contact so feel free to be honest~

I was thinking of making a fan art contest, but would you guys be interested in that? For prizes, I was thinking either a Deviant art subscription (1year/3months) or items from Gaia online (2004 letters, kitsune mask, raw gold...etc)
