We're still working on Minami. It's a slow process but I'm in hopes that we start working more on it next year to achieve a demo at least.

We're studying to make our work better. I don't expect Minami to become big. But I will say it's my best so far. We're still a growing writer and I plan to spend my next year and more years improving our craft. 

Next year, We'll be reading visual novels like:

• Umineko na koro ni
• Saya no uta
• Club Suicide (Hopefully I can read it next year)
• Danganronpa 1, 2, and V3
• and more

What I read so far:

• Sadistic Blood
• Umineko na koro ni (Chapter 1 - 3)
• Maggot Baits (First Playthrough)
• And a few small EVNs

I've wasted my years studying everything but the actual stuff. I need to experience this in order to become a better writer.  

I'm also getting my health in check so I can live long enough to become ryukishi07 good. I strive to be my own thing, but I too want to make a masterpiece. I do have a masterpiece in the works. I've been working on it since 2016. And when I release it, it would be something like Marco and the galaxy dragon. And I don't know yet but I'm thinking of releasing it episodic. It's a big project that will probably cost $100,000 to make each episode. And letting you know, it's a story that won't be finished until it's time... just like one piece.. so this could be very costly. It almost seems impossible, but nothing is impossible if you're rich enough... Maybe I'll run a kickstarter for each episode maybe... We're not sure... But expect my masterpiece to be one of the most disgusting thing you'll ever see. I will truly become shadman hahahaha

But through getting my masterpiece done, I will not release it until I have reached the goal before it. Which getting a fanbase and my writing is at a level where I am ready. And honestly, this could take 5 - 20 years. All we know is that we will release side stories in the meantime to enhance my experience. 

Thank you for reading this! Happy new years everyone!
