Welcome to Kina Creates!
This is a project I am creating to help me reclaim my own relationship with the internet.
More practically, it is a collection of my personal creations, from writings to crafting to some light journaling.
This site is perpetually under construction. :d
Some things you will see on this website are:
~Reviews of games, anime, manga/manhwa, books, and music
~Travel blogs
~Crafting updates for crochet, painting, or coloring pages
~Fun or inspiring quotes I like
Life Updates~
I did not make that zine but I have been slowly piecing together my crochet project!
I've been reading a lot more recently- both manga and novels. I'm hoping to read 20 whole books (not manga) this year! Which is a lot for me, but not that much compared to the book girlies of the world.
Site Updates~
- Moved navigation to top
- Included hummingbird pointer
- Reformatted sections
- Embedded moon phase widget, thank you to MoonPhase.guide!
I have recently finished the following media:
- The Husbands by Holly Gramazio: I read this book for my bookclub and I hated it. But luckily, so did pretty much everyone else in the club!
- Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng: This was my palatte cleanser after The Husbands and it was REALLY GOOD. I liked its exploration of lifestyles and motherhood.
- Sonic Frontiers: I came back to this to get hype for Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (movie) and I am so glad I did. Once I got used to the movement and unlocked all the stuff for combat, I really loved it. The movie was really good, too!
- I Think Our Son is Gay (manga): This 5 volume series is super cute and explores homosexuality and homophobia in Japan. It's about a mother who suspects (but doesn't pry) that her high school son may be gay and has a crush on his best friend. As a really good mother, she simply wants to support him and give him space, but goes through some personal consideration of her life and navigating a not very accepting society.
- BL Metamorphosis (manga): Another quick 5 volume series about an elderly woman discovering Boy's Love manga and befriending a high school girl over the hobby. Also very sweet and explores the friendship between two completly different lifestyles.
Currently, I am smoking the following media:
- Webfishing: This game is so freakin' cozy. Go fish and chat with people.
- Final Fantasy XVI: I'm totally not playing this because Clive is super hot. I'm also playing it because I like the story and yay action games.
- Infinity Nikki: I got a bit blocked by a dress up competition mechanic I totally ignored until it was required so hopefully I'll get back to it...
- Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Muramaki: I'm about 80 pages into this book and it's really setting up very nicely. It's also weird, which is my jam.
Anicord Contracts Fall 2024 was a success. I finished and reviewed everyting and put them up on Google Docs. While I haven't imported them to the site yet, I think I'll just link the GDocs link for now...
New contracts season will start in early February. I told myself not to sign up for too much, but I've signed up a good amount so teehee~
Projects:
- That Minky Momo project is still going slowly, BUT I am in the detail stages so maybe soon?
