I have been watching the news and checking ANN (Anime News Network) to see the status of my favorite manga-ka, j-pop artists, j-rock artists, and seiyuus. I also checked in with my friend from Japan who I met around tenth grade. She's doing fine and her family is ok. I was so relieved to hear from her. The news about the earthquake was scaring and shocking. I didn't even know one that big could even happen. It's very scary and anyone on my f-list who's from Japan or visits and is from Japan I hope you're safe. I'll still be on the look out on the news and the list to make sure everyone is ok.
I do want to help out by offering a charity fic. I've never done it before so I'll need a little help, but basically I'll be willing to write a charity fic. I'll work out the details later, but I want to do it. I think the need to help my friend is kicking in along with the love I have for the Manga-ka and seiyuus that works so hard for my favorite series. I do truly hope that everyone is ok.
