Since I'm solely a writer I've got tons of time and even more ideas bubbling through my grey matter. :o Is there a chance of writing for two projects concurrently?

Christy Lijewski works on two series at the same time; her Tokyopop book Re:Play, and her Slave Labor published comic Next Exit.

Very cool! :)

Hmm...:confused: I was wondering more specifically about any manga-ka with two or more TP WIP.

Hanzo is doing the art for Poison Candy at the same time he does Midnight Opera. Both our books.

Well, he's probably not going to be able to start on Poison Candy until he finishes A Midnight Opera. However, there are a few writers working on more than one project for us. Keith Giffen is the writer of I Luv Halloween and the co-writer of Zapt! (to say nothing of Battle Royale and Battle Vixens, and the numerous projects he has at other publishers). Alex de Campi is the author of both Kat & Mouse and Agent Boo (and something tells me we haven't heard the last of her yet). There are a few other writers who have an active project with us, and other projects they're trying to get greenlit with us.

So, I suppose the answer to your question would be yes. Of course, both projects would have to be strong enough to stand on their own.

This totally answers a question I had, but I didn't feel pertinent unless I got "accepted".

Though I had a feeling that if I produced 2 or more good pitches that TP wasn't going to stop me from writing as much as I wanted.
