THE WORLD'S STILL OPEN WIDE
I reached another milestone in my writing career last week. Last Tuesday, the day after I returned from Comic-Con, I went to Trilogy and gave my two-weeks notice. As of next week, I will be a full-time writer, completely supporting myself with words. It's a pretty big deal for me, and I hope to make it last without becoming one of those desperate freelance types that's always on the prowl for something new. I have some pretty regular clients, and my hope is that kind of work will continue for me.
So, it is with that in mind I present to you my final employee picks. This month: Asian arthouse.

Wow, congratulations! That's a huge step but I know it'll pay off for you...
Thanks, guys. Though today there are rumors that my main editor at Tokyopop is leaving the company--so, I may have just jinxed myself. :)
Hot! Good luck, man.
