Around 2002...

4. Has DREAM been helpful to you in any way?
Haven't been there for so long – but in time I think it will.
5. What was the first manga you ever bought for yourself?
Believe it or not...Ranma 1/2. Dragon Ball wasn't the first manga in Denmark, but the first to really get to the childrens – especially the boys- and it was first with Ranma 1/2 that there where something especially for the girls. Not that I think that I am very girly, but I first heard of manga when Ranma1/2 came.
6. Name the pens you use for drawing manga and how you use them. If you ink digitally, name the sizes and types of brushes you use and how you use them.
All kinds of pens – tip: find some ones you like holding and you think is good...the best tip ever! lol
7. How long does it take you to do one page from planning to toning and lettering?
Have absolutely no idea.
8. What is the average length of your mangas?
I have only made one short story beside this. So I frankly don't know..
9. After this manga, what type of manga would you like to draw next?
I've thought about a manganized version of "Lost in Austen" – an alternative version of Jane Austens "Pride and Prejudices". Or maybe an old story I made long ago. Ask me again when I'm at the end of Game!.
10. What inspired you to draw manga?
My own desire to learn different drawing techniques.

Around 2002…that's the same question as number 2. – I have always like to draw and before manga I like very much Elfquest^^
12. Who do you say gave you the most support while drawing manga?
Mom, dad, friends and some teachers.
13. Do you want to draw manga as a living?
Maybe. Well, not just manga. But I would also like to sing and/or act.
14. Do you prefer traditional or computerized when it comes to coloring?
I'm best on the computer – so I respect and admire the people who do it traditional.

I don't know.
