Twelve Dreams of a Fleeting Life

Life is like a fleeting dream, and death like a peaceful rest.

A life passes like a dream, as if we had dreamed our way through it.

Twelve Dreams of a Fleeting Life: each dream is an unexpected premonition that could never have been prepared for or foreseen, twelve dreams belonging to 13.

I'm no good at writing blurbs...

I'm 13, a lazy person who loves writing short stories and couldn't resist starting another project on a whim. But if I start a little project, I'll get criticized... And I don't have the energy for a big project... So I've decided to be a little shameless and link twelve related stories together, one unit at a time. The short story I posted earlier is an extra for the July volume, about Yasui Qiye and Zaizen Hikaru. Each heroine's name comes from an old name for a month. Some stories will be based on Prince of Tennis, and some won't. I've come up with the characters and roughly planned the themes for each story, but actually sitting down to write them is another matter. So who knows when I'll finally get around to this project...

But I believe everyone who's started a project or wants to start one knows that starting a project is no easy thing...

So please forgive me. 13 will do her best.

Also, leave 13 a comment, give 13 some motivation, and remind 13 that it's been ages since she started a project...

One of 13's favorite songs lately is "Hanamizuki" by Hitoto Yo. The lyrics are very moving, and the song inspired the movie "Hanamizuki." If you're interested, go look it up and watch it!

If you're interested, go ahead and follow 13's so-called column. I promise that if I start a project, I won't abandon it, even if it takes a little longer... When 13 has a new story in the future, you're welcome to come by and check it out...
