Starting a membership! You can take a "peek" now

I went ahead and pressed the membership application button. It's obvious, I suppose, but... there's a review process, isn't there? My heart is racing. Well, let's see what happens... Click.

...Wait, that review was fast!!!

From the seed of the membershipto the application, it took two weeks. I'm a little taken aback by this speed myself...I know that once I get fired up, I have a tendency to just charge ahead.I know that once I get fired up, I have a tendency to just charge ahead.

I was aiming for a July 1st opening, but I thought,if it passes the review, I'll just do a pre-opening.I can open it already!

I feel like there are many things I won't see until I start, so I'm going to let you take a "peek" a little early!

The "Peek Lab 👀 Monaka's Contents" is planned to be this kind of membership.

What is "Peek Lab 👀 Monaka's Contents"?

It is a membership where you can quietly peek at the "in-progress" creative activities of Soramame Monaka.

As I wrote in the article titled "Jack-of-all-trades complex", I love to express myself, but I also have a perfectionist side.I was putting a brake on myself, thinking, "I can't put it out there unless it reaches a certain level!"I was caught in this loop and felt like I was stagnating somewhere.

So, I thought, why not justput out all the messy parts of the process and the things I'm struggling with?If I do that, maybe I can take the brakes off and move forward.

This membership was born out of the desire to have you gently watch over such an experimental attempt.

I'm thinking of sharing things like this...

I will share the state of my creative activities, along with my thought processes and real-time worries and inspirations. As much as possible, while they are still fresh.

I will expose everything, not just my first attempt atthe "Literature Flea Market" I'll be challenging in the future,but also the process of running this membership.

The content of my activities might change day by day along with my interests. However, the one taking on this challenge is just one person, "Soramame Monaka," with absolutely no track record.

I think there are times when you hit a wall for the first time, and other times when your strengths really shine. I would be happy if you could enjoy those moments by relating them to your own experiences.

Reports like these depend on the progress of my activities and my mood, so they might be irregular. So...

I came up with this myself and it made me chuckle, but... for members, I'm thinking of sending a monthly "Lab Letter"💌" as if it were a personal letter.

I plan to share things I've been thinking about lately and the progress of my activities in a relaxed way. Please look forward to it. Lab Letter.

I want people like this to take a peek

• People who have something they want to try challenging

• People who tend to get tense and think, "I have to do this properly"

• People who can agree that, at the end of the day, creating is fun!

I think I can resonate with you.

Where I am standing now might be your present. The moment I overcome something might be your future.

Failure might become your weapon, and small achievements might become your courage.

I would love for you to witness up close this "challenge where I don't even know if I'll succeed."

There is only one plan: "Quietly Watching Over"!

I'm going to start with just this for now.

"Quietly Watching Over Plan" 100 yen per month

If things start going well, I'll think about it then. Oh, and I'd be happy if you could witness that with me too!

And about whether the first month is free. I thought about this a lot. But you know, my initial thought was that I wanted to "keep it locked." So I'd like to start without a free first month.

However, since this is a pre-opening, half of June has already passed, and I'm in a trial run phase myself... so I've decided to make the first month free only for June!

Of course, being a “read-only” member is perfectly fine. Just because you’ve become a member, there is absolutely no pressure to react every single time! After all, this is a membership for people who want to stop trying to “do things perfectly”! Haha.
I am truly grateful just to have you watching over me quietly, or simply being a reader.

Why not take a peek at an unpredictable challenge?

This membership is actually quite a revolutionary challenge for me. That’s because I’ve never released anything at this speed before, and conversely, I’ve only ever had things fall through because I thought I had to prepare “properly”.

I’m not even sure if it’s okay to put things out there in such a “messy, half-baked state.” Including that experiment, I have proceeded this far with a style completely different from my usual self.

How will this experiment end? Even I have absolutely no idea. Why not quietly take a peek at this challenge?
