In late September 2006, my short comic, "Sea Bream Dream", was published in Issue 24 as I luckily won a place in Neo Magazine's 2006 Manga Competition! This made me extremely happy and proud of what I have continually been doing in the UK manga scene, as for the past 13 years I have never won a competition for my manga-styled artwork. Thank you, Neo! I am honoured. And thank you Sweatdrop, for my comics output would have dwindled severely, should the group not have formed in the first place.
