Right now we’re witnessing the difference between authority and power. Elon Musk does not have the legal authority to do any of the things he is doing. He is not authorized to shut down USAID. He is not authorized to take over OPM. He has no legal authority to access all our data and payments.

Reminder to freelance Japanese translators in the US that if you have a working relationship with at least one Japan-based agency, you can qualify for a work visa that: 1. is free for that company to sponsor, 2. allows you to work for other companies, 3. can be issued in up to five-year increments.

J-Novel just announced the Brilliant Healer manga and light novel for print Sooo excited that a series I did the logo/covers for is going to be printed 🤩 #manga #lightnovel #jnovel #jnovelclub

Snuggle baby alert

So many great novels ruined forever because Shogakan is run by fuckwits who lack the baseline intelligence to qualify as human. Don't spend a fucking cent on this atrocity. Stifle it with indifference.

Publishers will cry boo-hoo about tight budgets from thin margins, which I don't dispute per se, but when you consider that manga used to pay $20+ per page to translate in the 90s when foreign industry revenue was tiny, forgive me if I wonder if it's more a question of priorities than lack of money.

The first two chapters of Flower Princess of Sylph, a wonderful high fantasy yuri manga I’ve been editing for Kadokawa, are out today on Bookwalker! First chapter’s free 😉 global.bookwalker.jp/decca60a8a-3...

Starting off the workday with a very clingy sidekick

There are a couple different parts to this. First, let's start with type design. All-caps text has a higher visual density because all of the letters are the same height. The available whitespace of a given line of text is most highly filled in for all-caps text compared to mixed-case text.

Microsoft 365 subscribers, a heads-up: an email went out yesterday that Microsoft was increasing the monthly charge from $6.99 to $9.99. What this email didn’t say was that this price jump is OPTIONAL. They are automatically opting us in to a new, more expensive plan with ✨AI features✨...

The new year's coming up, so here's my 2024 year in editing! Only things missing are 3 unannounced simulpub manga and the light novel series I'm translating (under a pen name, may I remain undoxxed 🙏)!

When Animorphs ended, fans were vocal about how they didn't like the depressing ending. K.A. Applegate responded with amongst the most brutal letters I've read. It takes a generational talent to tell your fans "If you're mad at me because that's what you have to take away from Animorphs, too bad."

In case you missed it, Anime NYC Professional Badge registration is up now! There's a complimentary Friday-only option for librarians and educators, which is really nice. animenyc.com/badges/profe...

This has gone way more viral than I ever imagined, so uh, hi new followers! 🫣 I really wasn't planning to talk about politics or my library days much on here, but if you have questions about stuff like this feel free to ask.

"a major and respected company" LMAO And what they're doing is so virtuous that they can't even handle you knowing that you're selling your work to them? Gross, no. HarperCollins, wtf.

I am BEGGING you all to please treat sacred places in Japan the same way you would a church (ideally?) A tourist from the U.S. carved his name into one of the wooden torii gates at Meiji Shrine youtu.be/eCsjKYBBo0U

Have you ever wanted to learn how to do manga lettering from beginner to master? Thanks to Gonzalo (@GonzaloLetterer on X), you can now learn the ins and outs of manga lettering from an actual professional in the industry on Udemy! Check out the course linked below: www.udemy.com/course/manga...

Ex-librarian here—I'd say encouraging your followers to put in requests for books with marginalized authors/MCs and check out those books both in person and online would be best. To get books and keep them on shelves in times of scrutiny like this, there has to be a quantifiable demand for them.

PSA for manga translators: Avoid EC Innovations if you get an email from them about manga translation!

Hi all! There finally seems to be a bunch of people joining this app, so I figured I'd make an introduction. My name's Stacy, and I'm a freelance manga and light novel editor, game LQA, and occasional JP - EN translator! I've also recently started editing Korean webnovels for Publang.
