The epub is currently not available, I'll try to get that up as soon as I can. I've been working on the release for 14 hours straight, though, so excuse me while I die for a bit.

I just realized it's been a whole year since I put out Chocolate Insomnia. It is the first thing I ever properly released, so I can't help but look back fondly on it. You can now find the download on my website: genmajou.com/works/chocol...

NEW BLOG POST: In which we talk about 'A Sonata for Summer and Winter', a dreamy closed circle mystery that leaves you with more questions than answers. But is also kind of great for doing it?

I've been reading The Man in Pirate's Island (海賊島事件) by Kadono Kouhei and enjoying it a lot, so here's a sloppy sketch of my favorite evil supermodel detectives Miral Kiral from the previous volume.

Vallachia Update: the EPUB is now available for download on the site. I've also upgraded the PDF (so now it properly embeds the fonts). Apologies for the delay, the calibre default EPUB conversion leaves much to be desired when it comes to books with many pictures.

Took a while, but my website is finally live! You can find the download links to my past work(s) there, as well as any future ones. Don't judge my web design skills too much. (The layout might be somewhat messed up on mobile devices, I'll fix it later, sorry about that.)
