# About me
Hello everyone!
Welcome to my page: Midsummer Afterglow
My name is Sarah and there are many things which make up who I am. Most likely there would be far too much I could say about myself so I'll keep it simply to art. I have a deep love for reading
and writing and I have tried my hand at the latter and found it to be somewhat of a passion of mine now. I put a lot of work into every piece I write and hope that I can continue to do so as I improve and build upon my love for this precious art. 
I began by writing FanFiction and have found that it is more difficult to do than I used to imagine. But I love it and once I finish my story For Always, (a Naruto FF), I will move on to begin my first original project!
I used to write all of my stories (short and long) in Microsoft Word Document but recently I have discovered a writing program that blows every other one away. This program is Scrivener!!!
Scriviner is the most wonderful and organized writing program I have ever come across. It helps me to get my work done and enjoy writing all the more. Although I am not a Scrivener expert just yet, I am taking advantage of the basics and I love that I get to learn more and more about it as I write. What I appreciate the most is that Scrivener really suits me. I don't use every feature it offers but I don't need to. It's a program created for writers and I've never felt more at home with my writing than when I open it up and see everything in one place!
I am currently a part time university student and I make sure to set aside time for my writing.
If you wanna get to know me then comment or message me and I will reply when I can! I'm a very open person and friendly as well so don't ever be afraid to express your ideas or opinions with me as I tend to be very honest myself. :D
If you come across any of my art that you would like to use for any reason please ask my permission first and I may or may not agree to let you use it depending on what it is for. I tend to be lenient with this subject as I have let people use my art in the past but I still must be wary of people who snoop around to steal art and I never want that to happen to me and it makes me sad when I hear that it has happened to other talented and respected artists here on DA.

*Welcome to our group~!*
Our group may just be starting out, so thank you so very much for giving us a chance and joining! I plan to submit new journals weekly, so don't miss out! Also, once we receive enough support, we may even do contests, giveaways, and other community projects. So if you know any other Japanese enthusiasts, please feel free to invite them over.
Thanks again,
~Tania (789lol )

Awesome~!!! Thank you so much for accepting me!!!

No problem at all! Why would there be any reason to exclude a fellow enthusiast? Cx / Have you read the journal that I posted? fav.me/d7gs6x4
The reason I ask is that I plan on doing similar journals in the nearby future based around a certain aspect of Japanese culture that our members would like to hear about. C: Could you help me out?
I just need to know (for now xD) what are the top 5 aspects of Japanese culture that you would like to learn more about?
(In example: (tales/stories vs poems) literature, (tradition vs modern) music, (traditional vs modern) art, (t.v.m.) food, patriotic (anthem, flag, etc.), games, etc.)
Please and thank you!

Gosh I cannot remember how long it's been since I first discovered dA. I've been through a few accounts though >^<
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah me too! I've been here for 10 years (the age of dA) and I've been through four different names before I finally settled!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh wow!!! That's longer than me...I believe I have been around for 6 years. I've had three different accounts and finally settled on this one. However due to school, I'm not always as active on dA as I would like to be.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I remember that feeling! It's only after graduating college that I've had any time to really get involved in dA! It's a wonderful experience so far!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, really? I have been wanting to become more involved here (especially within the literature community); however, college really does put a lot of stress on me and limits my free time.
What did you major in?? ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
English Literature and minor in Creative Writing!
I found that it's a challenge, but it kept me involved in dA, to go through my Favorites Gallery, organize the folders and then to comment or critique all the work I've favorite-ed. I started with something like 86 pages of a Favorites, paired down based on if I like them or not, and then started critiquing. All critiques or commented works are in the folders all non critiqued works are in the Featured area. I'm now down to 7 pages of favorites.
It keeps you busy but it's something easy you can do, a small way to stay involved in dA while you're in school.
What are you intednign to major in?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm sorry for this terribly late reply. I just finished my college semester.
I intend to major in English and take the creative writing path so I'm very grateful to be receiving some great advice from you~. I have found that it is far too difficult to be on dA while in school and I still have two more semesters of general ed classes. I did take English 101 this semester, though and I got an A in the class so I'm very pleased and having put so much effort into it, I was happy that my professor left me an encouraging compliment on my final discussion post. (I take online classes). It was something along the lines of: "It was a pleasure to read your well written posts all semester." I couldn't help but feel elated after being praised by my very first English professor. ^^ I hope you're doing well, dear~.

It's alright! Life gets in the way for sure!
Good luck with school! If you're allowed to you should post some of what you wrote for class on dA!
