*Long message PLEASE READ*
This is what I need your help with! After you can prove you’ve done it, we can work out a coaching session/ gaming together if you’d like!
Not a lot of people know about this except some close friends, and family. On December 8th, 2022 I had an extremely random idea. A good friend ( Ralph Robinson,) had been complimenting my impressions and said I should try to be a voice actor. Which was a childhood dream of mine that I shelved long ago, with only attempting it once. Bringing us to the conversation of his multiple ideas for books/manga series he was/wanting to write. The call ended shortly after ( this happened often because our phones don’t like conversations apparently.) During the time we weren’t talking I was smacked with a plot for an anime style book I could write to be the voice actor for. I instantly pitched the general idea that hit my brain, and began writing that same night. Telling my friends every so often about it. As I continued writing I wanted the story to not only have deep meaning, but be concise. I feel a story can be short, but still have the emotional twists and turns of a very long story/manga series. I finished this book on March 19th, 2023 ( Thank you ADHD.) It is thirty chapters. I researched meanings for Japanese words and phrases, really trying to delve into my setting to create a feeling of authenticity. I’ll have to wait to see if I translated things correctly. It took me roughly an hour to write each chapter, and the same exact amount of time to type it ( I learned if I write a sequel, or any other books to type them only. Because, I loathed this part.) However now I have, what I think, is one of my greatest accomplishments individually in my life. Aside from my son. I want to give a huge shoutout to my brother Frankie for coming over to read my book out loud to me so I could type it. He really helped me not become discouraged during this process. I poured my heart into this, building a world I never thought I would. In school I always received praise for my story telling, and creativity. However, my punctuation always received a bad grade. I even mentioned this in the introduction! This book means the world to me. If you are interested in anime, I say this because my long term goal is to have it animated, I think this book would be a great read for you. I genuinely think it is something people would enjoy reading. Without bias, I would read it and I rarely read books anymore. So, if you enjoy anime’s/manga series/short novels, please purchase a copy of my book. It is on Amazon for only $11.99 ($12)! (Hard backs should be available.) This is all I’m asking for my birthday this year, which is April 7th. I don’t want anything else, just for people to give my book a chance as if they didn’t know the author. It would be considered TV-MA as there is violence, and a few curse words. If you made it this far, thank you for reading. If you actually purchase my book, PLEASE KEEP ME UPDATED ON HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT IT. A small summary of the book would be; Senshi Nokokoro (This means “Warrior of Heart,” but would be reversed to “Heart of a Warrior,” in Japanese.) is a young boy living in a desolate world. Earth has been ravaged by creatures known as “Jaakuna Haienas.” (This means Unholy Hyenas in Japanese.) Upon a stroke of prophetic luck, Senshi is granted the power to save the world. The battle for a planet, should never be left to a fifteen year old boy. But with the help of his friends, he may just accomplish that.( End.) Without further ado. In the words of one of my old directors, and friends, Ed Breese. “Sit back, relax, and enter the world of…” Orion.
