I am neck deep in this pony business, and love Japan's culture and language just as much (in fact, I'm an amateur teacher of both!). Wanna know more? Check out http://koiyuki.flavors.me/
I spent months looking for the motivation to write again, and thanks to a friend(who lent me their backup laptop so I could get back to work on my personal projects in my personal space), I'm feeling the urge to write, once again.
Years ago, before I even got deep into Japan's language and culture, I lost someone close to me to car incident(to keep a long story short), and over the years, I had to teach myself to live without her by my side or serving as my guide, as she had the whole time we were together. It's been a long road, but now that I approach true adulthood, I feel ready to take it on.
Firstly, if you're writing because you wanna be the next millionaire writer, the next J.K. Rowling, stop right now, put the pen down and walk away. Your chances of getting that kind of success are far worse than your chances of hitting the lotto, and even if you do manage it, you will hate the craft as something you have to do in order to keep the cash going. Creativity demands doing new things
