-Edit: Story bio added.-

Hey guys! So with a few weeks until Waku Waku NYC and the release of my new mini-manga "A Maid Story," I decided to post some preview material for the story. I will be posting new preview material every Saturday until Waku Waku, so look forward to it!

Story Bio:

Haruka Devine is the head maid at the #1 Maid Cafe in New York City. She is admired by all for her beauty and grace, but she holds some dark secrets...including the fact that she spends her whole paycheck on anime and manga merchandise! But there is more to this maid than her beauty and otaku hobbies, as we delve into a dark past stained with depression and abandonment. Will this maid be able to face her past, or will she continue to use her otaku obsessions to mask her true feelings?

This is the front cover for A Maid Story. I was really satisfied with this result, and some feedback from my college professors helped me to tweak it in other ways as well. I was going for a "creepy cute" feeling with this.

Also, I made a Vingle to post my art. Vingle is a still slightly-obscure Korea-based social network site. I'll be reposting stuff I put on DA/instagram on there, so if you have a Vingle feel free to check it out: www.vingle.net/KeikoKup

Thanks for looking! God bless~

What a great Story Bio!!!  Taking a common story line, and apparently a fairly common job that some people might not want to do, and turning it into a story of depth and involvement on multiple levels.  Seriously, very cool.

Oh man, look at all that bl-- I mean Strawberry Jam! And boy, would you look at Haruka? She seems kinda overworked, and has a...black hole heart.

...nope! Totally nothing wrong at all! This story is just gonna be a cutest Shoujo manga with hilarious hijinks!

Joking aside, really nice job on the cover here! I really can't wait to see what this story has in store now~
