Katsurou Shimizuhide bio
 Author has written 3 stories for General, and Manga. Age: 28 Writing style: Minimalist, Jerkyll and Hyde in terms of mood. An avid fan of the simile, metaphor and their neighbours. I also don't plan. Outlines and me don't mix very well. Seriously, I have tried before, and the resulting process felt like writing a rigidly planned thesis. But still, that doesn't mean that the plot itself would be a total carcrash. I for one wouldn't have it at all, and would try my very best to steer it away from any potential disasters. Should I fail, I'll send a SOS to my characters. They respond to my call. Usually. Current projects Ghost Gunslinger Quirky narration, manga-style humor, drama in the Key tradition. My crackorama opus First Arc - Gerardine (Chapters 1 - 11: Completed) Second Arc - Hell (Chapters 12 - 20: Completed) Final Arc - Judge (Chapters 21 - ?: In Progress) Accolades received: Winner of the 'Supernatural' and 'Comedy' category in 2013 Manga awards. Winner of the 'Drama' category in the 2014 Manga awards. Finished Works The Observor A literary piece penned years ago. Details the reflection of a down-and-out novelist recovering his inspiration after going on a bus ride and a journey into his own mind. Unfinished AKA RPG My maiden foray into the comedy genre. Being hammered out over a span of 18 days, it is a rushed mess of things that I randomly threw in to have fun. Still, I like to thank this piece for rekindling my love for the craft. I like to think that it's a decent enough read too. Cover art is credited to Jax Creation. All works are Copyrighted by Katsurou Shimizu; id: 281187 |
