I will guide you to a place where you can take a quiet breath. [Membership, started.]

Hello. This is RaM.

Today is an announcement post.


As you can see from the title and the header image, you probably already know, but...

It has been exactly two years since I started on note.
Entering my third year, I am starting something new.


So, a membership,

RaM’s Fan Club *Mellow Hideaway*

has been opened.


Since it might be an unfamiliar term, let me add a supplement first...

"Mellow"comes from the English adjective 'mellow,' which means 'soft,' 'calm,' or 'smooth.' When describing music or atmosphere, it is apparently used with the nuance of comfortable or relaxing.

Previously, when I tweeted on X that I was 'struggling with what to put as my job title on my business card,' several fellow users helped me out.
From those suggestions, I adopted the idea given to me by Emu no Maiton-san.
I thought the sound of it was cute.


Since this is such a sudden announcement, please let me talk a little about the background.


...

RaM's note history

I have created paid articles and paid magazines in the past, but I was hesitant about membership.

This is because I didn't have the confidence to keep it going.


It is no exaggeration to say that I have walked alongside note for these past two years, and note has supported my life.

The reason I continue to post every day at 11:30 is not out of a sense of obligation, but because I love note.

Even though I have felt the pain of creating work, I have never come to dislike writing.

I want to contribute more to note and to everyone I have had the pleasure of meeting so far.

When I thought that, the idea of opening a membership came to mind, and I decided to launch it.


...

What kind of membership is RaM’s Fan Club *Mellow Hideaway*?


Here, in RaM’s Fan Club *Mellow Hideaway*, there isn't much of a constant flow of information or people.

As a healing space away from the busyness of daily life, you can spend a relaxing and leisurely moment here.


You might wonder, "What do you mean it's a community but interaction isn't active?" RaM is


a bit on the highly sensitive side.

I enjoy chatting with people, and I love fun and exciting things, but when it comes to active interaction, it can be difficult for me to maintain my energy, so I cannot say for sure that I can "always do it every time."

Even though I love the warmth and connection of note, it's a truly unfortunate personality trait.


Actually, since I started note, I have come to know my own sensitivity very well.

No matter how moved I was by reading someone's work, there were times I couldn't bring myself to comment, and I have also experienced not being able to express my words well.

Because I am like this, I was convinced that membership was not suitable for me.



I like going to cafes by myself.

I absolutely love the time spent sitting in front of a mug, zoning out, or working on creative activities.

I don't mind hearing group conversations, like a girls' gathering (or a moms' group) at a nearby table.

In such a setting, it doesn't bother me much if I am sitting there all by myself.

The reason I don't feel it's unpleasant is, I think, because I can feel a part of my life or someone else's life there.


One day, I realized.

Why not have a community where interaction isn't active...?


When things are tough.
When you feel lonely.
When you are feeling down.


Through my work, I hope to gently stand by your side, help you feel relieved, and perhaps allow you to be kinder to yourself.

Through words, you might feel that you are not alone and be able to live your life looking a little more forward.

RaM’s Fan Club *Mellow Hideaway* will be operated by valuing "peace of mind" and "trust", where it is enough for you to just be yourself in that space.

I would be very happy if you could pick up the works created within RaM's worldview, gently loosen the tension of your daily life, and find comfort.

Currently, there are two plans available.

Relax and Unwind Plan


Relaxation & Harmony Plan is a
plan to fully enjoy everything RaM has to offerall-inclusive plan.
1500 yen per month.


[*Mellow Hideaway* - What you will receive]

1. You can read exclusive works.

・*Mellow Hideaway* newsletter article <Once a month>


・Essay <Once a month>


・Creative works (novels) <1-2 times a month>


・Behind-the-scenes stories of creation and writing <Once a month>


・Self-care essay ~How "white space" saves my life.~ <Once a month>



2. I will deliver a message (Today's Light) on the bulletin board almost every day at 9:00 PM.


"Today's Light" is a message that brings a little "white space" to your busy daily life.

I will deliver small words that allow you to pause for a moment in your daily life.

"It's okay not to try too hard."
"Some days are just like that, aren't they?"
"Who do you want to be today?"

There will be days of encouragement, days of questioning, and days of appreciation.

I would be happy if this could be a time where you can gently turn your attention to your own feelings, which are easy to lose sight of in your busy daily life.



3. I will also deliver audio content exclusively via URL.


Titled "A Break in a Mellow Hideaway," I record these on stand.fm and release them irregularly as URL-exclusive content.

After I finish writing an article, I talk about what I was feeling at the time and the thoughts I put into the words.

"Why did you decide to write about this theme?"
"Behind-the-scenes stories not written in the article"
"Small realizations found through the creative process"

It is a time like an afterword.

I hope to deliver the atmosphere that cannot be conveyed through text alone by carrying it in my voice.

While doing housework.
While taking a walk.
During that time before sleep when you take a relaxing breath.

With your favorite drink in hand, please feel free to drop by the mellow hideaway.


4. You can read RaM's paid articles.


RaM's Paid Note Collection and articles in
independent magazines not included in the paid note collection

you will be able to read without any additional fees.



5. There is a birthday benefit.


For those who have registered for the "Relaxing Plan" during their birthday month
and have also notified RaM of their birthday via DM or message, RaM will send you a birthday card (image).

basically use the note message function, so
I would appreciate it if you could configure your settings so that you can use it.

I hope that participating members will also feel comfortable being themselves while spending time in the town of note.

There may be times when RaM visits to read members' articles.

I would like to be active in leaving comments, but since my energy levels are a bit lower than most people's, I apologize if I am unable to do so...


I look forward to your visit to this place where I have quietly and gently laid out my more real daily life, my current feelings, and my creative works.

Thank you for your continued support.



RaM
passionately talks about the thoughts behind the membership.
