Creative Writing: Not Being Able to Give Up on Writing Articles | For Those Who Truly Want to Break Through Barriers but Are Suffering, and Are Worried About Writing and Exposing Their Work ①

I also think it is wonderful to create things happily and in good company.

However, this article is written for those who "still cannot give up."

Giving shape to the aspirations you had tucked away.

If you want to read it right away, please read the
notes after the second illustration before proceeding.

As for myself,

if you only look at my achievements and numbers,
I am still in the middle of the journey.

Even now, right up until I post,
I keep wondering if this is okay.

Compared to those who are selling well or
those who have been active for a long time,

I might not be in a position to speak on this.

And as someone who was even ignorant of the rules of the community,

writing this article itself
might be a mistake.

As someone who has spent time in a similar situation,
I couldn't think of this as someone else's problem.

I hesitated to write this article,

but I am writing it in the hope that it might be a little helpful.

The trigger was seeing an article about being afraid to expose oneself and not being read.

Why are some people read and others not?

Can you expose your true self?

I am not yet in a position to speak at length about this,

but I have learned some things after writing 295 articles in three months.

In fact, for about 200 of my articles,

it was common to have zero or single-digit likes and views,
and there was a period where they didn't grow.
Even now, there are many that are not being read.

If there is anyone interested in how I built things up
and how I grew my writing,
I will talk about it when I have the opportunity.

This time, I will focus on what has become clear to me.

"The Place I Finally Reached After Being Told My Way of Thinking Was Different: note"

Notes

This article contains strong language, so
if you are kind-hearted, please
take a look at my other articles instead.

Also, since this is from my perspective, I believe there may be
some things that are incorrect.

It may be biased toward creative work or for those who want to grow their audience.

This is the answer I found first.
It is what I have continued to face and have built up little by little over three months.

The difference between those who get read and those who don't

"People Who Get Read"

Experience, reach, and breadth of perspective

The passion for the genre is different to begin with

The effort to be read is on a different level, and you can see the
time spent in their thumbnails and writing

They have confidence and intent in their work, and they put out
things people want that even they themselves would
find themselves picking up or buying

Regardless of whether their writing is good or bad, you can see their attitude

They constantly set challenges for themselves and update and you can see the
effort to convey things to the reader

They have originality and are refining it to understand and use it

They go beyond by experimenting with reproducibility

They don't look through the lens of prejudice or speculation
and turn even the trivial things that would be discarded into material and weapons

Even if they are unskilled, they use words filtered through their own filter and write about
the truth (things created by firmly believing in their worldview)

When you polish things, you feel satisfied for a moment, but you lose your ambition and
overlook emotions more often; you realize that polishing things well becomes the main focus

Why am I able to expose myself?

"People Who Can Expose Themselves"

You are not fighting in an arena where worrying about exposure matters

To expressis what I am using it for

Use the weapons you have available

In reality, I am painfully aware of the reality that I am not remembered or seen as much as I think I am

Just like with writing, the attitudeis what I am showing

How about it? How many of these points were you concerned about?

The attitude toward the readeronce that is organized

the problem of not being read and the problem of whether you can expose yourself
I believe will be solved

It's easy to say, but it's tough, isn't it?

Actually, three months have passed for me too
There were times when I thought I was completely failing

My passion allowed me to break through that

However

I still have a long way to go and am struggling as I do this

This is the core of it all

"Attitude"

Amidst various wonderful posts categorized by background, achievements, and genres,

it is actually harder to get noticed.

If you cannot expose your work, find what can serve as a substitute.

Thoroughly questioning whether you would truly buy or read your own writing,

and expressing consistency and passion so that readers do not get lost.

In other words, branding.

In reality, when you buy something you want,

there are moments when you pick it up without thinking, right?

Appearance, texture, writing, warmth; in other words, "whether the purpose and the presentation match."

For someone who came to buy something cute,

a title and thumbnail that make them think

"How cute!" are more important than anything else.

Does the content live up to that, and is there something they can take away, such as an emotional impact?

“Your posture becomes your credibility, and once your self-introduction is finished, you can finally stand at the starting line.”

To explain it a little more simply,

“You need a business card that is you—one that moves hearts.”

For example, most people wouldn't go out to hang out with a stranger, right?
Then, what about a friend?
You would hang out, and you might have given them a gift or received one in return, right?

The reason for this difference iswhoyou are.

And finally,

even if you don't worry about it this much,

if you cherish the people who watch you,
the path will naturally continue.

Things you use by force will not help you.

Beyond the feelings that overflow naturally,
there might be options unique to you.

Until the time comes when you eventually choose
you can just write as you please and revise it later.

It became a place where I belong.
That is all there is to it.

If the response to the article is good, I might talk more in-depth
about writing and such (*'▽').

I will continue to create works
so that I can be there for all of you, even if just a little.

▼ You can see my works here, so
please take a look if you'd like.

This time it took an unusual form, but

thank you for reading until the end.

May you and your loved ones last for 100 years.

Original Work 100 Years With You: 'Sharing Single-Mindedness'

Falling into a sea of tempering
Placing words that melt on my fingertips

A little too hot
So as not to be swept away by my feelings

Putting on an apron over my loosening cheeks
My outfit is sweet and spicy

I want to find my heart in the cooled-down temperature

Remaining single-minded,
don't break

Giving shape to
the longing I had kept tucked away

The usual meeting place,
the gaze held in my hand,
meeting face to face

I don't want to be drowned out by the drifting sound of water

The unswaying frills are my ally,
the one-tone was neatly tucked away

The cautious tension is squeezed out

I want it to reach you properly

A sound that cannot be fully contained

An inquiry from a small palm,
the mixed wrapping paper is
a little misshapen, but

The recommended scent gives me a push

The tilted satin becomes a secret ingredient,
and the unraveled ambiguity

Time stops and is accepted

The tip of the fountain is slowly visible

The feelings returned to me are
above my head

The warmth placed gently upon me

I was the only one who was late

Like sand, smoothly
shaking my shoulders and running through my whole body

The bite you shared with me saying it was delicious,
I don't quite understand

Bitter chocolate and
a single thread

The distance that melted away

Shadows in the footprints
are connecting

The end of the ribbon
is connected to you

Swimming
I was watching you properly
You're swimming, aren't you

In the gently floating waves
the sandy beach that snuggles up begins to walk

I want to divide it as if we were meeting

At the very least, you who have read this far
and read to the end
have potential sleeping within you
This is based on my own experience,
but you are not the type of person who just reads and stops there

▼ I don't know if this will be helpful, but I will leave my footprints here.
Whether you follow my path or not, I wish you success.
