Seeing how November is just about one month away I thought that now would be a good time to give all of you who have been keeping up with Bottled Prince a headโs up on the future plans of the story.
As of now my contract with Mangamagazine.net will be ending on November 11th, 2012. I signed on with them I believe about two months after they first went live which was back in 2010, of course I might have the time wrong but Iโm going off of past emails ^^; but anyways Iโve been updating Bottled Prince, sometimes 15+ pages, just about every month, with the exception of a few times when I had to take a small break to build up the buffer or fix the story up a little more, and now after 2 long years my contract is coming to a end for that site.
Iโm still waiting to here back from them on a few things that I donโt think I can disclose right now but with the advice from my husband, who really wants to read the ending to the story, if I do end up removing it from Mangamagazine.net I will transfer the story on to my site and give the story itโs own personal page when I finally get the new layout finished.
Iโm still thinking things over on whether I will keep the comic on the site or not and whether I will start a new comic series. So with that said the chapter that I upload today and the one in October will be the last chapter updates for Bottled Prince on Mangamagazine.net Afterwards I do plan on finishing the story but Iโll announce further details about that once I finish talking and thinking things over with the higher upโs.
Iโve realized that I really enjoy having my own personal website and nurturing it and watching it grow as people stumble upon it. Iโm really debating on whether I should really bother with uploading my comic on different comic hosting sites when I already have my own personal website but again thatโs just a thought. Nothing is set in stone just yet but I will keep you all update ^^
P.S. I am amazed at how the professional comic/manga artist are able to handle pushing out 30+ pages of comics each month. Iโve been doing this just about non-stop for two years and Iโm exhausted. Though getting pregnant once with twins then the second time with just one and moving and being in and out the hospital might not helpโฆ.also my husband keeps telling me that I shouldnโt beat myself down about it because they have assistance and what not and Iโm doing this all alone while helping in taking care of the kids and the houseโฆ.but we all have our times where we do feel lacking but feelings come and go and right now I feel fine, sick and achy and tired but fine for the most part ^^;

Iโm actually still shocked that I started Bottled Prince only about a few months after I had my twins O.o I donโt even know how I really handled doing all of that because I definitely wasnโt use to taking care of twins nor was I used to dealing with postpartum depression and Bel-palsy on top of that. When I had my second child thatโs when I started going in and out the the emergency room and later found out that I had diverticulotis. There was one time where my fever was almost 104, I think it was 103.6 or something and I didnโt have anyone to help me pick up my husband from work, I had the car that day, so I packed the kids in the car and drove my dizzy and sick self up on the high way and to his job. I later found out that I had bacteria in my blood, I canโt remember what else happened that day. If you look back at one of the old chapters of Bottled Prince you might notice some of the toning and art and possibly words are really off or bad. I think I was working on a chapter during that time but I had to stop because I couldnโt get my eyes and hands to act right. I remember feeling bad because I was sick and people were expecting pages and I couldnโt do anythingโฆโฆbut when I look back at all that Iโve went through I really have to thank God for keeping me this long and Iโm thankful that Iโm still able to do what I love to do and thatโs to tell stories. Thereโs of course been a lot of other things thatโs happened but Iโm not trying to bring all of that up or talk about my lifeโs story. And Iโm not trying to brag in any way but I just notice or have learned now just how much work goes into making a comic and keeping up with constant updates.Iโve really been blessed to keep doing this and the more you go through the more you learn how to roll with the punches and maybe some day I might be able to pump out higher qualities pages at the same speed as the professional comic/manga artist ^^ who knows.
You go, girl!!!!! Thank you for all your hard work!!!! It is a pleasure to read your decent work.:) It is rare to find such decent manga. God bless you.:)
I was on mangamagazine and looking all over for Bottled Prince so I could favorite as a new subscriberโฆand it was nowhere to be found. Iโm glad I found this page, and I look forward to following the story whereever it ends up.
Thank you so much for looking for me! Iโm really glad you were able to find me. Once I get the first volume finished for Love Love Fighting, then I plan on working on Bottled Prince again =D
Let she said the only reason i joined that site was for bottleprince lol.
And i can wait for the ending :3 not for any purpose other than to tell youโฆ.I really do admire you. You have a very active life but you still were able to what you wanted to do. your making great comics and even a game. I hope i can be like you on day <3
Iโve been through a lot with making the story and kind of burnt myself out with it but my husband also wants to read the ending of it soon too but Thank you so much for saying that to me <3 it really makes me smile to know that what I'm doing is admirable even though I know I'm not much at all and there are others that are doing so much more but to know that I'm not completely crazy in my decision really helps! You and I are both humans so I'm sure that you can find the right path that you want to take with your art as well, I've received some hurtful words and negative responses but that's all apart of being human so let's both of us hang in there okay? We can do it!~ <3
WE CAN DO IT!!!!<3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mof0dEKT_9Q LOL!
All I have to say is do what you feel is right ! I only joined mangamagazine.net because of โ Bottled Prince โ so if you were bring it over to your personal site , I really wouldnโt be losing out ! Iโm always on here reading โ Love ! Love ! Fighting ! ! โ so it would help having both of my favorite mangas in one place . Plus , you would get more and more people coming to your site which is a major PLUS ! XD I thank God for keeping you through everything and for also allowing you to come out stronger because of it ! Keep fighting and doing your best and never forget that God will always be there for you ! FIGHTING ! ! !
Thank you for saying that ^^ Itโs reassuring and very kind! Iโll definitely be posting up a blog update when I finally hear back from them and get the matter figured out. I didnโt know that was the reason why you joined Mangamagazine O.O Thatโs pretty niffty =D Iโm glad that my other works are still interesting enough for you to join the site just to read it. Iโm thinking that I might see a change in the amount of people that I get to my site after I hit the two year marker. In April thatโs when the sites 1 year anniversary will be and I plan on doing a give away. Itโs still some months away but Iโm excited to see the turn around with that and to have finally kept my site updated and active for 1 whole year =D
