Constellations in my Palm
Story by Chisake Sakuragi
Art by Yukine Honami
Published by the Juné Imprint of Digital Manga, Inc.Review by Ginger Mayerson
This is a long manga with lots of lovely Ykine Honami art and a possibly too stately story by Chisake Salirago story. Don't get me wrong, I haven't been ruined by slam-bang yaoi manga, I can still enjoy something reasonably paced will lots of flashbacks, like this one has. However, if you want sex sex sex in the first ten pages, it might be good for you to read this one because there isn't sex sex sex until later on after everyones character, backstory, family history, educational credentials, and credit rating has been firmly established.
It is the story of two collage boys who were childhood pals and drifted apart and then, eventually, drift back together. A lot of subtle psychological stuff happens. This really must have been a bitch to draw. I salute Yukine Honami; she always gets the tough ones. [more]

Douggary Grant Interview
I had the pleasure of attending my first SiliCon and loved it, wish I could have stayed longer. I also never got to thank Douggary Grant, the Convention Chairperson, for my press pass (thanks, Douggary), but I did want to ask him a few questions. He very graciously consented to this email interview.
Ginger Mayerson: How long has SiliCon San Jose been happening?
Douggary Grant: SiliCon in one form or another has been around for about 10 years, it started from the ashes of Time-Con (a straight up sci-fi convention).
GM: What inspired the convention? [more]
