Yes, the Japanese manga versions of This Rake of Mine and Something About Emmaline have started to arrive, starting with the two volume set of Emmaline. I have to admit that of all the things that have happened in my career, this really tickles me. I don’t know why, but it just does. Perhaps it is just the fact that I sit in my office in Seattle and spin my words into sentences and paragraphs, and now my stories are finding new lives all over the globe. It is humbling and leaves me awe-struck.
Thank you to everyone who has picked up one of my books. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

No, Elizabeth thank you for sharing your gifts with us. This is fantastic news, Elizabeth! These are two of my favorite books by you. Where can we get copies?

Me again XD, Mind giving us the manga artist’s name so I can do a search on the book?
*cough* like a true fanatic I already found the mangaka name which is nakamura chisato. Am mulling whether to buy it regardless of the fact that I don’t read a whit of japanese ~_~
I read, write and draw manga myself and I was so stoked when Elizabeth mentioned that her work was translated into this awesome form. I am so getting these books! What an awesome way to support one of my favorite authors and japanese art!
sophrenia – where did you find the book to purchase? I just find info sites.
That’s awesome news! And fresh news to me…I had no idea there was a market for romance novels to become manga!
Congrats!
(And I have now used my exclamation point quota for the day. But this is just freakin’ awesome! …okay, one more. *grin*
