[Report] Sorry for the wait!! | Recent Status Report | Creative Awards 2026 | First note

Hello everyone, it's been a while. This is Kuro no Ichigo.

I apologize for the silence over the last 10 days or so. First of all, as some of you may have noticed,I have stopped my "daily posts."

The reason is... I won't bore you with the details (lol).
To be honest, I fell asleep with an article finished and ready to go, just waiting for me to hit the post button, and that broke a streak that had lasted over 70 days.

Since then, the "shackles" have been removed, so to speak. Honestly, the feeling of being down about "Oh, I messed up" was greater than my motivation, so I took a little break.

1. The view I saw during my "break"

However, these 10 days were not wasted for me.
On another account, my daily posts have surpassed 80 days, and I've received 2,000 likes on about 8,000 views, so I'm feeling confident about the "quality" of my articles.

Also, during my break, I spent time reading various people's articles. There are more people now with a similar approach to my main content, the "Questioning Everyday Norms" series, and it was a time where I felt genuinely happy to see the note population expanding.

Let me briefly talk about my activities from here on out.

2. Launching the "Psychedelos Saga," unleashing 15 years of daydreams

During this hiatus, the "creative urge" that had been sleeping inside me exploded.
I will be restarting and rebooting the novel I am currently writing, "Psychedelos Saga"!

Actually, this work is a long, long story that has been building up in my head for over 15 years.
I had previously developed it on sites like "Narou" and "Kakuyomu," but this time, I'm adding new inspiration, making major revisions to the setting, and starting over with this main account as my base.

And, I have decided to enter this work into the
"#CreativeAwards2026"

Fantasy Novel Category
.

I apologize to those who were looking forward to my explanatory articles, but from now on, I plan to deliver "novels" and "my usual articles" at about a 50/50 pace.

Regarding the novel, I would be happy if you could warmly watch over the story that I have built up in my head during my daily 30-40 minute walks over the past 15 years.

3. [Pushing myself] Quitting smoking, restarting again.

Lastly, a personal, pathetic story...
I had been quitting smoking, but due to various circumstances, I started smoking again 😢

I realized, "This is no good, I'm coddling myself."
Once again, starting tomorrow, I willrestart quitting smoking.

If you don't mind, could you please push me hard in the comments section by saying things like "Quit smoking!" or "Don't smoke!"? With your words, I feel like I can really quit this time.🫡

Finally

The daily posting format has ended, but my "expression" will accelerate from here.
A 15-year-old heroic epic, and a sharp perspective that questions everyday life. Please continue to support the activities of the reborn Kuro no Ichigo.

Well then, see you in the next article (or story)😌
