Description I'm taking out the "It's magic" part of Panel layouts. ^_^

This also has some basic design principles which will be built upon later.

I should note that some of the things like the A4 paper, and making one read left to right, are personal preferences. Take away the principle more than the personal opinions...

Note: These are not hard and fast rules, but general rules for you to understand and correctly abuse later.

Kyou Mo Ashita mo (by Emura, a mangaka) <-- How the pros do it in manga form. Has tips and tricks that us regular people don't get. So get taught by a mangaka. You can find the scans online.

I'll be adding more stuff than what's listed in the previous tutorials.

You don't have a contract with your publisher? How about an agent? They usually deal with this type of crap when the publisher fails to pay up. Might be worth getting one.

Tegami Bachi is drawn very shounen, with a few shoujo elements, but it has a very shoujo storyline in many cases. I mean that the focus isn't on competing to kill all the Gaichuu, but more on "what a letter means." type of thing, which tends to be more of a Shoujo thing. But it's adorable for that reason.

The publisher is completely broken with several issues with the finances, he went to court because of that, I don't care I'll do nothing about it I'm not the only one he owes money.

My future plans will be creating a small publisher (I already edited a book in my name), so it began. But I will try to work out in a manga anthology like shonen jump with some friends
