I Wrote a Novel
I wrote a novel. It is called Hitomi. Let me tell you about it.

You are standing next to the powerful and the angry and the rich, and you might as well be a bully too, laughing at the weak person cutting snowflakes out of tissue paper. Yes, you are right. But is right everything you want to be?”
