Off-topic post: Manga reviews and discussion (second post)
Once again I will be talking about the manga which interests me. Like the previous post, I will be limiting my discussion to Manga Time Kirara manga. In the time between that post and now, two additional manga will be receiving anime adaptations, although it is not yet known when the anime will air.

Fourth general post
Now that I’ve completed the first chapter of Innocence Seekers: April Light, I’ve decided to write up another general post. It will talk about the same things the other three general posts talked about.

Third general post (Christmas edition)
I hope you had a merry Christmas. I’ve decided to dedicate some of my time over the Christmas/New Year period to write this blog post, the third of my general blog posts. Like the previous two, it will discuss things I’ve been working on, and the things I’ve been following.

Off-topic post: Are the days of hard science fiction numbered?
While this isn’t a post about Innocence Seekers, as a speculative fiction writer I feel the need to address this topic. One of the challenges of writing plausible science fiction is the need to ensure that every parameter of the setting conforms to well-accepted scientific theories. Indeed, this was easier around the turn of the…

Off-topic post: Anime I watched and am watching (sixth post)
Another season of anime, another post detailing what I’ve watched. Whether you’re watching the leaves turn red up in the north, or seeing new leaves grow in the south, it’s time for me to mention the new anime coming out this season. For this post I will speak about my first impressions for a select…

Off-topic post: Trope analysis
Okay, since I don’t have much to do right now (I’m planning on resuming work on my projects tomorrow), I’m going to analyse some random tropes, and see whether I would use them in my projects. One thing to note, though, tropes are not clichés. Tropes are tools for the writer to use; they are…

Off-topic post: The four temperaments
While I’m currently taking a short break from my projects (I plan to start episode 3 of Innocence Seekers: April Light at the end of the week), I’ve decided to dedicate this blog post to the four temperaments and their use in storytelling. One thing to note, though, is that the temperaments are not necessarily…

Off-topic post: Storywriting (and what ruins my suspension of disbelief)
For this post, I will talk about some of my ideas concerning good storywriting. While I may mention points which apply to all stories, I may also talk about things specific to speculative fiction, as that is my specialty. The point of good storywriting is to ensure that your audience can not only follow your…

Second general post
This is my second general post, detailing what I have been doing, and my plans for the near future. It is similar to my first general post, and will largely talk about the same things. Be warned, though, there will be spoilers for Innocence Seekers ahead.

Off-topic post: Manga reviews and discussion
For this post I will be talking about some of the manga I’ve taken an interest to. Due to the fact that not much manga I’m interested in are licensed in my region, I’m often forced to either import them or read them on less-than-trustworthy sites. There are even more problems if the manga I’m…
