What is this for? Sorry if I ask you this stupid question...

From Wiki "Mangaka (漫画家, Mangaka?) is the Japanese word for a comic artist or cartoonist. Outside of Japan, manga usually refers to a Japanese comic book and mangaka refers to the author of the manga, who is usually Japanese. As of 2006, about 3000 professional mangaka were working in Japan.[1]

Some artists may study for a few years at an art college, manga school, or take on an apprenticeship with another mangaka, before entering the world of manga as a professional artist. However, there are some that just start in manga, without being an assistant by applying to contests that various magazines run. For example, Naoko Takeuchi won such a contest sponsored by Kodansha, and Osamu Tezuka started out without being an assistant."

Mangaka: Apa dia? buah manga? buah manga ka? hahaha.

Anyway I found out what it was...

Its like breaking the code.

My latest post on my Blog http://mentolity.blogspot.com/2008/11/baby-talk.html is about breaking the code of Baby Talk. I am happy that I can now understand my 2 month old niece's "speech" thru the universal "Dunstan Baby Language" it is truly amazing.

A different language altogether. Apparently all baby's talk the same language.

I'm very excited about it.

I have quite a number of friends who can be considered as manga's die-hard-fans (Sorry. I'm not). And trust me, they're VERY GOOD!

I'll give them your email later!

Im sure they're good but have no prior experience in this field. But I dont mind nurturing their interest.

What is it for? Mostly to render a story i drafted.
