Today, I´ve got a small notification for everyone using the Wattpad platform for reading:
https://www.wattpad.com/

I figured I might give my RW fic a chance to ´shine´ also somewhere else than just on kind of quiet LJ.
Therefore, I´ve started to post the once-again-corrected-and-hopefully-more-polished chapters from the very beginning of the whole story there.
In case you´d be interested, you can find it under my username
Kasumi2022.
For now, there´s only a few chapters, but I will gradually post all of them soon.

PS: Diligently working on the next chapter of RW III...

Hello there! ^^/
(If there is anyone out there.... ^^´)

Since I´ve finally received also the second compilation of RW chapters "banners" recently, I´m happy to show off with them a bit.

Exhibition of RW pictures... )

Looking at these makes me really want to continue with this story... But it will take a bit longer before I can get back to it, because I need to finish something else I had promised... But after that, you can bet that western!like Jin and Kame will be back. ^^v

Kon´nichiwa!

In these days, I´m working on getting a few postponed things in order, so I´ve decided to make a little overview of the websites, which I used for publication of Red West, out of LJ
(and its backup on Dreamwidth) and LJ akame_community.

In case that by any chance, you spot my fanfiction anywhere else, it means that somebody steals my credits for it. Please, let me know then.
(I wouldn´t have mentioned this if it hadn´t happened to me before...)

Thank you in advance and have a nice day. ^_^v

The list of websites with RW story... )

Dear RW readers, either commenting or silent ones...

2 years and 4 months... 45 chapters... That long took me to finish the second part of Red West. I haven´t realized it has been so long, until I checked the posting date of the 1st chapter. When I had started with RW, I wouldn´t have even imagined that it would get stuck with me for so long...

It wasn´t easy to reach this point of the story. It was not only about Jin and Kame anymore, even though those two remained the main characters. Since I included many additional personas, even historical ones and I didn´t put them there to be just in the background, there was a lot more to write and I had to think about it carefully. And even though all of this stole me for a lot of free time, it was fun, it was emotional and I´m going to miss it as hell. But hopefully, not for long... I already have some ideas for continuation on my mind and I´ll be happy to share them with you, when the right time comes.

AKame community on LJ had grown somewhat quiet during past few years and it´s not surprising, I get it. People change, grow up and move on. It´s a natural development, but it still makes me feel sad and so nostalgic about the times, when it was much livelier here, because AkaKame still mean so much to me....

So, this is actually my plea towards all of you – and I mean really ALL of you, who found the time to read my story. If there is anything you´d like to comment, to recommend, to wish for, to complain about, you have a chance now. Let me know what you liked, what you disliked, which character you´d like to see more, what you laughed about the most, what you cried about, what pissed you off. Any opinion or advice will be highly appreciated.

I´m not that type of an author, who would stop writing just because of the lack of reactions, but each and every comment can be that greatest kick, which keeps me from giving up. It´s very important for me to know that YOU are out there waiting for a new chapter. And I can promise you there IS something to wait for. Even though RW II. turned out to be quite long, there are still many things to tell and many... ehm, perverted ideas of mine to use on Akame. XD

But for now – I need a break. No matter how much I enjoy writing this story, there were parts really difficult to create and it feels like I´ve used up all of my specific plans and energy. I´m officially entering the hiatus from writing with uknown termination...
Well, and now I´m on the same boat with our dear Captains, right? XD

And finally, my huge THANK YOU belongs to everyone, who ever commented on any of the chapters, but most of all, to my dear sister, who is with me in this since the very beginning and also to Atago-kun, whose beta-reading makes the whole RW much more attractive.

Thank you all for being here with me.


Kamenashi-san, Akanishi-san,
Thank you for making my life happier.
亀梨さん、赤西さん、
私の人生をより幸せにするためにありがとうございました。

Hello everyone! ^^/

It seems to me that during the summer, the time is running even faster than usually... I know, it´s ´just´ a feeling. ^^´
Anyway, I´ve got some catching up to do and one of those tasks is that I´d like to share my joy from a certain gift with you.

In the Word-version of my precious fanfic Red West, I always add some little picture for each chapter. And somebody had this beautiful idea of putting all of them together at one paper and gave it to me as a birthday gift, so now I can have it on display all the time...
This is the RW I. result
, which I totally adore
(and also RW II. was promised... XD). I wouldn´t have imagined that it could look so good...

Sorry for the poor quality, I had to make my old camera work, because my mobile, which can take the best pictures, is currently under repair, for the third week already... -_-

Another post will follow... ^^v

Dear RW readers...

Last time I made a similar post, someone mentioned that it´d have been nice to listen to the music, which I use for stirring my imagination regarding to ´Red West´, while actually reading the fanfic. So, I´ve decided to "publish" the first part of OST for RW II., ´cause yes, I did this again. From some reason, it´s fun to choose the songs fitting to this story. There is also the second part of this "OST", but since the rest of the songs would have been a little... spoiling, I keep them secret for now. ^^´

In case you´re interested, you can download it here on uložto.cz:

https://ulozto.cz/xnpTCHcu/red-west-ii-ost-1-7z
Password/Heslo: Aka_NishiOST1

The list of songs and all the credits follow below in the cut, but just as the last time - I recommend you to listen without knowing the original source of the songs.

And in case you had missed the previous post, here you can find the RW I. OST:

Dear RW readers!

I´m happy and proud that I can present you the Red West trailer made by my dearest beta-reader [livejournal.com profile] theblackheat, who sent this to me just today, as a very surprising and lovely birthday gift.
Once again, thank you so much, dear. <3 <3 <3

Here you go...  Enjoy! ^_^


witchann2: (AKame FF)
Dear RW readers... (and anyone else who might be interested... ^_^)

Already for some time I was wondering if I should share this with you or not.
In the end I decided that it would be a shame if you had been deprived of it (especially after I received a very positive reaction from my quality-beta for anything aka [livejournal.com profile] seiko22).

During writing of Red West, I got this idea about creation of some kind of soundtrack for it (got inspired by another AKame-fanfics writer, I admit m^_^m).
Some of them took me long hours to pick, but there are also the ones, at which I was sure they fit the story perfectly right away.

So, in case you´d like to know what I usually listen to while I am doing the self-beta-reading recently, here is the link for download:
http://public.justcloud.com/e20zttqxbd.87350517
Update on 6th April:
I made it available on Czech website uložto.cz (seems I have some issues with justcloud...)
Password for an access (heslo): JinGunslinger
http://ulozto.cz/xv72u7vo/red-west-i-ost-zip

I would like to make a video from it and share it on YT as well, but that will take some time.

The list of the songs, which I´ve used for this little OST, along with the source and credits, follows in the cut.
But anyway, I recommend to listen to it without knowing the original source first, your imagination will work better that way, I suppose. ;)

Enjoy, and I will be grateful if you like to share your opinion.

PS: Working actively on RW II. Coming soon. ^_^

witchann2: (Red West)
To all RW fanfiction readers

As you´ve probably noticed, I´ve mentioned in the end of the 47th chapter of my precious AKame fanfiction, that it was the ending of RW I.
Already some time ago, I had realized that there is simply too many ideas in my head and a lot more to tell from Jin-gunslinger and Kame-former bartender story to make it fit just into one fanfic. But I wanted to keep my decision as a surprise Christmas announcement, so here it is. ^_^

Red West will be continued in Red West II.

Somehow, I got so consumed with the AKame story on the Wild West background, that I just can´t let it go so easily. Not to mention that there are still some enemies and problems for our dear Jin and Kame to deal with and more characters to introduce...

Of course, I´d eager to know what you think about it... Would you like me to continue in this story?
Is there anything in particular what you didn´t like about my writing? Is there anything I should pay more attention to?
I will be really grateful for your opinions and advices, which will definitely help me out.

From now on I´m going on a short ´English writing vacation´, so there will be some pause, before the RW continuation appear, but I will definitely come back to it in 2015, after I will sort all related thoughts out properly. I really want to keep the next part at least on the same level as no. 1. and after almost two years, I really need some break, as well as the two of them, so there´s no need to rush the things up. ^^´

I will be happy to meet all of you in the comments then again. ^^

Thank you for reading.
Arigatou gozaimashita.
ありがとう

Kasumi
