This year Shonen Jump will be holding a contest. Hopefully you guys and gals will have your manga ready to enter. I know that this year I will be entering the contest. I've had hold ups with my health mainly or family issues. But I'm ready to fight this time. I hold far too much knowledge about manga creation to keep missing these contest. At any rate hope you all will join. Take care have a good one.

I will be entering two of my manga projects. 

One is the original one that I started but then my health went down and i was off work for 3 months which set me back. And I was far too depressed to finish writing the work. We are 13 pages in though.  Shonen Jump contest oneshot teaser scene. by KENSHINRO7

The second manga entry is going to be my secret oneshot. And no this is not the main protagonist. Which proves just from the pic how epic the series will be.lol  Fron of Slick World RAW by artauxeo

So yeah the best of both worlds coming from me. I'd like to be the first foreigner to win both 1st and 2nd place.lol Yeah man that'd be cool.

I feel like the problem with foreigners making manga is that most of them are not too immersed into the Japanese culture as they only know Japan through entertainment industries. Not to mention art schools in the west don't teach you how to make manga as art teachers often cringe at the sight of characters with childish east asian looks. In other words they discourage you from drawing in manga style. Not to mention most manga books teach you how to draw professionally rather than the most essential part of making manga: storytelling. Hell most editors even say that a manga writer with an okay artstyle is way better than a manga artist with a highly professional artstyle. In the west, comic book companies don't give a shit about your work and only wants money but the manga companies do.
