Starting today I’m posting special previews of Sorcerer’s Apprentice Volume 1 until it will be available next summer from P2 Manga. Expect new previews every couple of weeks or so.

Greetings loyal fans!
I know it’s been a while since I last updated, and I had a very good reason for this. Last time I updated I mentioned I was going on an indefinite hiatus. For those who follow my twitter and tumblr accounts, you have heard me constantly mention a secret project involving Sorcerer’s Apprentice that I couldn’t really talk about. And now I will reveal the reasons behind my secrecy:
Sorcerer’s Apprentice has found a publisher!
Though the first volume was available through Comicxpress for a while, the shipping is ridiculous (particularly for those outside the US), it required paypal or a credit card (which a few of you have told me has made you squeamish) and you had to have an account with the site. This will now change. Sorcerer’s Apprentice will be published by P2manga, a small, independent, manga company. Through P2manga, Sorcerer’s Apprentice will be available on Amazon as well as in physical stores such as Barnes and Noble (further information when available)
Not only that the first volume of Sorcerer’s Apprentice will be completely rebooted with brand new art.
The first volume will be available sometime next year, more news closer to the release date. Thanks to everyone who supported me!
After carefully judging my entries (and then getting sidetracked by the convention I went to) the results are as followed:
1st place: Molly
2nd place: Marinta
3rd place (tie): Keijuko Ge and Mari
Congrats to the winners! And while this means all 4 entries get a prize, they were all so sweet and so good I couldn’t say to one person ‘no, a fourth entry gets nothing’. I’ll be in contact with everyone soon get prizes and things sorted out.
Okay, *now* my contest is over. Once again, judging is going to take me a week or so, so check back soon.
Today marks the end of chapter 16 and the start of my hiatus. I hope to make this hiatus as short as possible, but I don’t know what the future will hold. For sure I will give more information in November, and in the meantime you can check out my still updating series Queen of Games. The Queen of Games site will be back up this weekend with a bunch of new pages. Also check out my Tumblr which also be updating to get an idea of what I’ll actually be doing during the hiatus.
Thanks to everyone who supports the site and continues to support the site. I’ll keep working hard and moving forward, and try to provide the best story and art I can. And this is part of the reason for the hiatus.
EDIT: Okay, there’s obviously a little confusion about the whole deadline thing, just to be clear in case a lot of you misunderstood. Originally I meant *before* September 1st. Now, as long as your email says Sep 1st I’ll accept it. If it’s marked Sept. 2nd, I won’t. So that should give a few of you a little bit more time.
The contest has ended, so if you had an entry and weren’t finished with it, sorry, but it’s too late to enter. I will be posting the winning order soon, but in the meantime, check out the cool entries I got :3
