[Recent Updates] Vol. 6 Grateful for New Encounters and Connections! ~The Toughest Week Since I Started Note~

Good evening, this is Mizuka.

I am a dad spending every day with my 5-year-old daughter (middle class in kindergarten), my 1.5-year-old daughter, and my wife.

I live a life where I unravel the little snags of daily life with children while writing on Note.

Thank you for adding my work to your magazine!

First, some happy news.

Gratefully, this past week, I had my articles added to three magazines (by two creators)!

1. [Shiba Wanko]

Originally, Shiba Wanko decided to "write a gratitude article for September 2025!" and after actually writing the article,

they started this magazine with the hope that "more people will be able to enjoy Note."

It contains articles from many creators, and I feel that many of them have a similar atmosphere to my own Note, so please take a look.

2. [Shiba Wanko]

This is also a magazine managed by Shiba Wanko.

As mentioned in the magazine's introduction, I myself often buy and read paid articles, but there are so many interesting paid articles that I get lost on which ones to buy...

I think there are quite a few people who feel that way.

It seems that for a while now, you have been collecting paid articles under 500 yen, so if you are wondering whether to make your 'paid article purchase debut,' please take a look.

Shiba Wanko-san, thank you for your warm feelings and cheerful initiative.

Little by little, connections that seem to have started from this magazine are beginning to move. Thank you very much.

3. Oshushi-san

Oshushi-san, who writes note articles as a sushi restaurant chef.

It is simply interesting as reading material, and the content written also resonates deeply with the heart.

Above all, I get energy from the lively way you write!

This magazine also contains articles from many creators and is quite varied, so it is hard for me because there are so many articles I am interested in... Please take a look at it once.

Oshushi-san, thank you for adding it while your activities as a chef are so busy.

Probably the toughest week since I started note

While there were moments spent feeling happy, such as thinking, 'Wow! I was added to a magazine!',

in my real life outside of note, the past week to ten days or so has been quite intense.

There were various things at work that required different approaches than usual, and at home, there were many busy times filled with a full range of emotions.

In particular, there were many situations where I had to face negative emotions, so I was quite exhausted both mentally and physically.

There were days when I couldn't manage to make time for note.

At such a time, being able to connect with those of you who took notice of my articles was a great source of relief.

The fact that 'there are people who read my work' becomes a small light at any time.

The 'Note Exploration Record' I wanted to write has been postponed

As I wrote in this article as well, I actually intended to write carefully about the “Note Exploration Record” on the night of that day.

However, due to various circumstances, the work was postponed.

I had declared, 'I will post it within this week!', but... as a result, it was difficult.

However, the desire to write is still very much alive.

If anything, I feel like I've received some new hints that will be useful for my writing during this time.

Therefore, I have set a new goal to post it next week, and within this month. (I'm writing it here so I don't procrastinate too much.)

Viva, grid! Grid!

Even so, I want to keep going.

When writing on note, there are waves of 'times I can write' and 'times I can't.'

This time was definitely the latter, but even so, I had connections with people and received comments, and each time, my spirits were pulled forward a little bit.

I want to keep writing these updates in a relaxed and happy way, without putting too much pressure on myself.

Thank you for always reading.

I hope I can write a bit more refreshingly next time.

See you later.

[Bonus]
Since then, the injury on the left hand of my one-year-old second daughter, Tsu-chan, has been healing well. We're all looking forward to enjoying our trip to the zoo tomorrow!

This is a magazine that collects articles reflecting on my note posts since I started in August 2025, written in the form of monthly reports that also touch on actual access data and future plans ↓

↓ This is a magazine that collects [Learning-based Parenting Essays] written while I write [Parenting Essays] daily, occasionally weaving in lessons from books, video content, and articles by other note creators.
