The time has finally come to put down the brush.
I want to present somewhere the work I have been working on for 20 years, since 1995.
To do this, I need to organise my materials and other information.

Before I left Johoji, a publisher offered me the opportunity to write a book.
I was fascinated by the idea that if I did well, I might be able to get Writer Jakucho Setouchi to write an obi, so I decided to give it a try.
I wrote the book anyway, a manuscript of 102,232 words, or 256 pages of 400-character manuscript paper equivalent.
When my wife read it to me before I presented it to the Writer Jakucho Setouchi, she said the beginning was not interesting, so she made some additions and corrections.
The Writer Jakucho Setouchi pointed out that 'you didn't write this whole manuscript’.
The project was dropped, but after this moment I decided that I had to produce all the lacquer art works myself.
