"WRITE FOR YOURSELF AND THE AUDIENCE YOU WANT."

What is your reason for creating your visual novels?

Simply, I enjoy being creative.

Specifically, there were two events leading me to visual novels. The first was the movie “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” then DrPinkCake’s visual novel “Acting Lessons.”

Why the “The Last Jedi?”

TLJ was the glass wall-breaking moment for me. Before TLJ, I was unaware of the culture war and ignorant of the decline of Western media.

As I watched The Last Jedi for the first time, I felt hollow and confused. On my only re-watch of TLJ, I realized it was an awful film sullying something I once loved.

The Last Jedi left me with a realization. If a major movie studio chose to greenlight a 200+ million dollar project, a project whose story destroys the goodwill gained by the previous film while tarnishing one of the most successful franchises of all time, then whatever I could write would never be as horrendous as the script of “The Last Jedi.”

I began writing a novel following my TLJ realization. I finished writing my post-TLJ novel in 2019 and was deep into editing. Wanting a break, I jumped onto Steam to play a game.

Nothing in my Steam library was luring me in. I went through my recommended list, coming across Acting Lessons. AL had an overwhelmingly positive rating with over 10 thousand votes.

I bought Acting Lessons, unaware it was an adult visual novel. I played and enjoyed AL. Acting Lessons opened the visual novel genre to me, and I fell deep into the rabbit hole.

I was inspired and began researching how to produce my visual novels. I shelved my post-TLJ novel and began work on my first visual novel story. Simultaneously, I started learning how to use a 3d program and how to code.

Awoken and inspired I ventured into creating visual novels.
