The Twelve Kingdoms Forum

According to the AnimeObserver site, the author hasn't been writing since 2001... I won't link to it because some boards don't like that, but it says at the bottom of the Juuni Kokki page if you're wondering.

I think Xanthe is right, but I also don't think the author is still writing novels...

Well, chances are that his friend has been to Japan and back already, considering the post is from october last year.

Sweet! Looks like I found this place at just the right time.

Ah-ha! So this board isn't dead after all. I just found it and was all happy to find a 12k message board, then I saw the dates on the replies and they were all from months ago.
