Melinda, Jennifer, and Michelle on three titles geared for the aspiring artist.
Michelle Smith
Michelle Smith (swanjun[at]gmail[dot]com) has been a contributor to Manga Recon since 2008, and began serving as Senior Manga Editor in January 2009. She has also been writing manga reviews on her blog Soliloquy in Blue since 2006 and has amassed a diverse and extensive manga collection. She's a musician, a math person, a voracious reader, a competent cook, and a new homeowner. Basara tops her list of favorite manga, and she shamelessly exploits all opportunities to urge people to read it.
