♦Introduction
It's finally here!! Lace Song is having its very first contest! This contest is sure to be a lot of fun, and the prizes are very good. (**MONEY** is one of the prizes!) We hope you join in... but make sure you read the rules carefully.
What is Lace Song? We are a group of people who came together because we all had an interest in making manga. We have planned mangas and some in-progress mangas as well. You can follow our page here on dA by becoming a member. Click "join our group" and you'll automatically be accepted! There are more ways to keep up with us, too:Website: http://lacesong.co.vu (Lace Song's homepage on the internet, with all the basic information easy to access.)
and if you are looking for a good artist to commission, look at mehipnotizas' commission info here: forum.deviantart.com/jobs/serv… the great thing about her is that she can do a variety of art styles such as graphic design, realism, and disney style!!!
she's also selling prints of some of the things that are in her gallery right now.
PROJECTSschool's out... forever!! it took six years but i finally escaped college, doing my last homework assignment on may 26th
my internship ended as well, a few days before that. other than some paperwork complications with school (which have finally been resolved recently) i haven't had any responsibilities except looking for a job. so the next step after i finished all my homework was to get the lace song contest ready to go. i had wanted that contest to start weeks ago 
but school got in the way. 
well at least now, the contest has started and all i have to do is advertise it. now i can focus more on other things. i had to put off these things because of school. i lost time, and that makes me very angry. oh well... here are the things i'm working on:-illustrations for myself and others. i was doing this during school but i had less time and didn't get too much done. now i can do more. i have a lot of things to do and i don't even have a to-do list in public like i used to because i keep changing it lol. well, you'll just have to wait and see what happens. but, i am going to try to speed myself up. i'm very slow because when i try to go faster, the quality goes down. i have to find a way to speed up without reducing quality. this is very difficult but i'll try to do it.
-Gilded, a oneshot manga in collaboration with Xoxochi. for updates on that, keep coming back to see this tag lacesong.tumblr.com/tagged/gil…
-Samiyah-and-Zahir, a oneshot manga in collaboration with PuNK-A-CaT and mehipnotizas. as you can see, we have our own deviantart group so if you want updates about SaZ, please click "join our group" and become a member.
-a not-yet-titled oneshot manga in collaboration with Euxz. there will be updates about that on her deviantart and on lace song's tumblr.
-remember my otp, haru and makoto from the anime "free!"...? i have a blog that is all about them and it's right here: makoharuland.tumblr.com due to school and art, i had to become barely active on there. it's really, really sad because i was very active there and gained a ton of followers. i let many people down and i haven't even been keeping up with what's been going on in the makoharu fandom. i do plan to come back to the blog and with a whole new theme! but it's so embarrassing now. i bet so many people in the fandom know things i don't. and i used to be in on all the inside jokes. and people loved talking to me and reading my blog. but now it's going to be awkward because i was gone for so long.
-it seems like forever ago that i've been wanting to do a few short makoharu comics. but i haven't been able to. so that's still happening, finally. also i plan to draw a pic of haru for his birthday
i already have an idea in my head. in fact, i've been wanting to draw this illustration for over a year. -i used to help out at seabreeze romance scans seabreezeromancesc.tumblr.com/ which is a group that scanlated doujinshi of makoharu and a few other things. i had to quit several months ago but i've been wanting to return. i told them i wanted to come back but wasn't sure if i'd be able to. i still am not sure and will think about it for a couple more days. i feel so terrible about it because those makoharu doujins mean a lot to me and are super inspiring. those doujins are SO important to me. that's why i wanted to be a part of it all. but the least i can do is make those mini manga that i mentioned above...
as you can see, i have a looooot of things going on. plus looking for a job!! it's a lot to handle but hopefully i can manage it all.
REPLIESi had to really slow down a lot with replies because of school and all that. now i have more time for replies but still, there's all those other things i mentioned above. so what i'll do is i'll reply to some comments and notes but not all of them. please wait for one week... and then if you still want to talk about something and i didn't reply to you, you can send me a note about it. but yeah please don't feel insulted/offended if i didn't reply to you about something. it doesn't mean that i dislike you. it just means that i needed to not reply to every single thing ever.
and this goes for tumblr and twitter too! i am behind on twitter replies and tumblr messages. btw in case you didn't know, my twitter is twitter.com/sachiprecious and my tumblr is sachi-pon.tumblr.com .
