Sakurajima Part 3: Kagoshima City

December 5, 2015

On the third day of our Kagoshima trip, my mom and I spent the day hitting the tourist spots we both wanted to go (I’d go everywhere, if possible, but my mom doesn’t seem interested in the Meiji Restoration or the Satsuma Rebellion. Our first stop: Saint Francis Xavier Park The first stop was Saint… Read More Sakurajima Part 3: Kagoshima City

The Nutcracker King – Published!

December 5, 2015

I don’t really know how to announce this, so I’m just going to come right out and say it – I’ve self-published my first novella! The Nutcracker King was one of the stories that I wrote for last year’s NaNoWriMo rebel project, and after one year of rewriting, fiddling with the sentences, and general procrastination… Read More The Nutcracker King – Published!

Weekend Trip Part 1: Minamata

November 30, 2015

Hey everyone! I have loads of news to share with you! I graduated from Infini on Sunday, and before that, I took a trip to Kagoshima with my mom and bro. And since we were making our way down south of Kyushu, I decided that we should stop by Minamata on the way there. Partly… Read More Weekend Trip Part 1: Minamata

NaNoWriMo 2015 Winner!!

November 27, 2015

Today, I’ve validated my NaNo WIP and am officially a winner!! I’m not sure, but I think this is the earliest that I’ve validated the novel. I’ve normally validated only on the last day, so this is a pleasant feeling. This is the first year where I used an outline system, and I think that… Read More NaNoWriMo 2015 Winner!!

I tried to go see the momiji but…

November 25, 2015

… they were still green. So basically on Sunday, my mom and my bro (who are visiting) and I decided to go to Kawachi Fuji Garden (the place I went to during Golden Week). The momiji looked really pretty in the brochure, this was a good season, and Sunday was pretty much the only day… Read More I tried to go see the momiji but…

November 23, 2015

Ok, I’m a little late this week, but that means I have exactly one week to go. And right now, my word count is at 43,280 which puts me at almost three days ahead of the whole thing!! I’ve been averaging about 2000 words these past few days (except when I had the headache), but… Read More NaNoWriMo 2015: Week 3

九大祭 (Kyudaisai)

November 21, 2015

My mom and bro came yesterday, and since the Kyudaisai (Kyushu University Festival) is today and tomorrow, I brought them to the Kyudaisai today! And because I have always very conveniently found reasons to travel during the festival, this is also the first time that I’ve been there XD Sadly, I forgot to bring my… Read More 九大祭 (Kyudaisai)
