Dear BFF / Cher copain de moi: Inspiration

I have had this story in my head for a while now.

 

When I started high school, there were so many lessons that we needed an agenda to keep track of all the homework and events. I started decorating my agendas from the second year of high school in an X-Files agenda.

 

Recently when I moved to a new house I got hold of all my old agendas and I read them again and remembered all the fun times we had, all the lost friendships, the teachers, and how much I changed in high school. It also made me realise how much I have changed since high school

 

Since then, I began to wonder about friendship, how it changes you, how it changes through the years, how you go from having that one best friend to having a "social circle".  I was also intrigued by how loyalty changes depending on your age and all the challenges and opportunities that go with the idea of friendship.

 

So I finally decided to write a fictional story where I could reenact some of my childhood memories as well as analyse how I perceived friendship as a child and growing up.

 

All the characters are fictional but as writing has it, a lot of the stories will be inspired by real life events and experiences, always from my own perspective.

 

I hope that readers of all ages will enjoy this story and the characters, as it has been my dream to create a slice of life manga that readers enjoy. I hope that it could inspire some of you to reflect on your own value of friendship and to seek to be surrounded by people who support you and inspire you.

​

Finally I wanted to share some of the wonderful yonkoma manga that keep inspiring me, check them out and buy the books!
