Live in New York City or the surrounding area? Got anything to do this Saturday? Well, of course you don't. So, it'd be best if you made your way over to Kinokuniya for Del Rey's "Your Career In Manga" panel that's going on at 2 pm. They don't say much as to what is going to be covered, but they've got plenty of guests!
Panelists include: Dallas Middaugh (Associate Publisher), Tricia Narwani (Publishing Associate), Ali T. Kokmen (Marketing Manager), Caron Harris (Production Manager) and April Flores (Associate Publicist). Also included in the panel is freelance translator Mari Morimoto, who has worked on projects such as Del Rey Manga’s Dragon Eye and manga publisher Viz’s Naruto.
Afterwards, they'll be having a Q&A session, which will most likely consist of "can I work for you guys?" questions from high-schoolers. If you're serious about breaking in, or just have nothing better to do, then go check out the panel. Who knows -- there might be cake!
