Arianna: Here is the recorded version of my original song: Beautiful Blameless. This is one of the first songs I composed, starting as a poem that I fashioned into a musical piece.

The Problem With Consistency
Avery: For the last few months I’ve been trying to keep up with a weekly schedule of releasing content every Friday. This means releasing a video for YouTube and a corresponding blog alongside it. Doing this has been, I would say, both rewarding and tiring…

Kai: Hello everyone, I’m very excited to present you an Audiobook version of my short story “The Forgotten Old Man and his Forgotten Old Pond” Voice narrated by Avery. I think it turned out really good! I’m glad it exists in this format so it can reach more people. Please Enjoy.

Consistency will lead to Great Work!
Avery: For the first time ever, I have been consistent in my creative output as an artist. I’ve been working on a web comic and releasing a single page of it every week on Comic Fury while also in constant development of brand new pages every day.

Avery: Creating art—whether it’s comics, novels, video games, animation, or any kind of big project—takes more time than many of us realize. Often, we don’t see the true scope of how long these endeavors can take until we’re deep into development. Storytelling, inspiring others, building immersive worlds, this is all good, but it can come with a sacrifice, especially when working on ambitious projects.

Avery: I present to you the 5th track of Meditations of Superman, titled: Destroying Angel. If you do not know, this project is a cosmic fantasy ambient soundscape narrative told across a number of tracks. (A mouthful, I know.)

Avery: Finally, after almost a year without another release, I present to you the 4th track to my Meditations of Superman series. If you do not know, this project is a cosmic fantasy ambient soundscape narrative told across a number of tracks. I’m not a musician, just someone whom likes to work with whatever creative medium he can get his hands on!
In total their will likely be 14 or more tracks, so keep an eye out, you will see the remainder of this project release hopefully this year. With another track definitely releasing in the next two weeks.
Making a Comic & Sharing it is Hard
Avery: Making art, whether it’s comics, videos, or any other form, is a challenge regardless of skill. While working on my comic, I realized the sheer volume of work required—writing scripts, creating thumbnails, and illustrating final pages. Even with the time I have, it feels daunting to know that I may be facing years of effort for just one story. The temptation to cut corners is strong, but I know that sacrificing story and quality isn’t what I want. Instead, I must embrace imperfection and keep moving forward.

Avery: I have been working very hard on a project of mine called Meditations of Superman. It’s a sci-fi narrative project that uses ambient music to create a soundscape that coincides with the narration as well as the illustration. It is a very unique project, one that has taken me quite a long time to create—almost 2 years or longer at this point. Of course, most of that time was spent procrastinating and not necessarily knowing what I was doing.

-Beauty is Magic-
Something beautiful unwraps the air
Cold like the morning Autumn breeze
As the birds sing an invitation to Winter
Waiting for the sunlight to warm our jaded heads from slumber
We desire to be innocent
To be the nature we admire
But as natural as breath
We fall into ourselves
As we are washed away by the colors
I want to gaze
Not with calcified eyes
But with unclouded judgment
Into the abyss that stares back
And from the dark of the mist
I accept the truth
That my eyes do not deceive
But are a looking glass
To nothing supernatural
But a spectacle as I now know
An acceptance of natural miracle
And a knowing that beauty is magic
~A Poem by Avery Nakashima~
