Also, Norstal: How much Kanji are you familiar with?

None, heh. Still studying Hiragana and Katakana.

I have Katakana down and a decent amount of Hiragana.

I know a handful of Kanji, including: white, sun, origin/book, language, light, dark, death, fire, heart, sound, rain, etc.
If nothing exists, where did this anger come from?

Basically, it's chronic laziness. :p Something that I really need to work on.

Ah, that sounds familiar. Very familiar...

Depends. Do you have a basic outline of your story arc? Have you already fleshed out your characters to yourself, so that you can let them tell the story rather than you tell a story about them?

As well, how long have you been working on it?
