Hi friends! I'm the creator of a new manga series from HarperTeen called MIKI FALLS. I do both the writing and the illustrating. All four books in the series are in stores now: MIKI FALLS: SPRING, MIKI FALLS: SUMMER, MIKI FALLS:AUTUMN, and MIKI FALLS: WINTER.
Can't find MIKI FALLS BOOKS at your local bookstore? Buy them online! If it's MIKI FALLS: SUMMER you're looking for, click Here!
Here's one of my latest Youtube videos:
And here's my 'music video' style trailer for Miki Falls:
"MIKI FALLS: SUMMER" is the second book in the series. Here are two preview videos, the first of which presents a 12-page sample sequence from the book (Don't worry, it doesn't give any of of the book's bigger surprises!):
All right, Crilley. What the heck is Miki Falls *ABOUT*?!?"
Really wanna know? Watch this video:
Here's my movie-style trailer for Miki Falls. If you want the "ultimate" experience, click my music thingie and listen to the music while you watch. (Can't'cha almost smell the popcorn? ^_^)
This slideshow presents a short sequence from Miki Falls: Spring. The scrolling text comes from the word balloons in the real comic.
Here's a little 'art tour' showing details from four of my personal favorite pages from Miki Falls: Spring.
Yo, Mark, what happened to the other YouTube videos you made?!? I've moved them here:

I am not exactly a household name (still workin' on that!) but I do have books that you should be able to find in any large bookstore: Akiko and Billy Clikk , two series of young reader novels published by Random House Children's Books. The Akiko novels are based on a comic book series of the same name published by Sirius Entertainment.
I am currently at work on MIKI FALLS , a new series of graphic novels being published by HarperCollins. The first books, Spring (book 1) and Summer (book 2), are available from Amazon as well as Barnes & Noble. I hope you enjoy the samples in my slideshow. I'm especially eager to get feedback from manga/anime fans and readers of YA fiction, so if you have any thoughts please message me or leave a comment. I look forward to sharing more samples (the completed project will be over 660 pages long!) in the weeks and months to come.
My newest book in the Akiko series, Akiko: Pieces of Gax, , is now in stores.
I live in Michigan with my wife, Miki, and children Matthew and Mio. If you are interested in seeing more of my artwork (and would like to get a FREE personalized sketch from me), please visit my website at:
