# About me
Sometimes I write journals at 1 in the morning when I should be doing other stuff.Things just hit me.
I don't think my name is important for most of you to know, and I don't really know how I come off as a person through these words. In truth, I like talking to people, even about little things.
Random conversational comments make me happy, even if it takes me a long time to answer them.

Oh dude!
The Shonen Jump contest requires a pen name with the one-shot
since you're more familiar with the Japanese language than i am i was wondering if you'd like to help me think of one!

Waaah! I'd love to!!! X3
Is there any sort of message you want to convey with your pen name, like any kind of tone or impression? That might help with coming up with suggestions and ideas. =3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
tone or expression, i haven't really thought of that
I thought of maybe some sort of combination of my name on here, HeartandVoice
I guess the message I would want to send is something like nothing worth having comes easy, but i'm not sure how i could put that in a name
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, okay. So maybe something like working hard toward where you want to go, moving forward and stuff like that?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yes! something like that.
Oh and my friend Heather and I were talking, and we were wondering if I should make it a guys name. Because what if the editorial department sees that its a girl and judge it before they read it? like would their judgement of the work be different if they thought it was coming from a guy?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I doubt it. I mean, it's possible, I guess, but I don't think they're only looking for guys. It would be pointless to hold a contest for everyone if they were going to judge against people based on their gender. Though if you want it to be a guy's name, that's one thing.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
when you think about it that way, give me a girls name!!
yeah i mean its a worl wide contest, it would be stupid of them to judge based on gender. and i'm not like Ko Aoki or anything, i have a pretty shonen story
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, okay. xD Just wanted to get back to you on this, though I don't have a solid idea for the name yet. I have an idea of the sound, though, for what would suit you.
Mhm, exactly! There will be plenty of female artists entering, and I think female shonen artists are kind of cool. It's sort of a different perspective on the genre sometimes, like with Katsura Hoshino with D.Gray-Man and Yuu Watase with Arata.

hahah alright awesome! I think once we figure out a name i'm going to make that my DA name too. HeartandVoice has a special meaning, but for music, i think i want my DA name to also be my pen-name
yeah! you're right! and i think Blue Exorcist's artist is also female, i like her style in jump.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh! That's a good idea! So you'll probably want something that's not elaborate as a name...I've got the image of it in my head - something direct. I should start compiling a list and see if there's anything on it that sounds good.
Really? I didn't know that. I like knowing that there are a fair amount of female shonen artists. Do you know of many male shojo ones? It's interesting to look into the variation and how it can change or be interpreted between different genders, I think.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, i want the name to be catchy but also meaningful, if possible. I know Muto Ashirogi had a lot of meaning and its catchy at the same time. A name people can remember easier.
no i'm not sure about any male shojo artists, Kyosuke Motomi (Dengeki Daisy) was pretending to be a guy (if you ever see her self portrait chibis in her manga, it looks like a shirtless dude) but then i later found out that she was actually a girl, which surprised me because her manga is probably the most violent looking shoujo i've ever seen, which is why i liked it so much! But anyway, because of the well drawn violence and how realistic Kurosaki's attitude as a guy was i figured the creator was also a guy...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, that's why I'm trying to think of something that symbolizes you as a person. My thought process for the name in terms of sound is actually really similar to Ashirogi Muto - not the name itself, but in the sense of a concise first name, and something a little longer for the surname.
Yeah, I thought she was a dude until recently. It's interesting how manga artists do that, because Katsura Hoshino does the same thing in her comic strips. I actually looked up male shojo artists and it turns out that there really don't seem to be too many of them. Where I looked said that they were more common in the 50s and 60s, and yet now you hardly ever see them. Kind of interesting how there are so many female shonen artists when you think about that.
