So, I want opinions, I've seen light novels, I think they are called progressives that pull volumes into one book, it makes the book a lot longer to be sure, but I think it also makes it easier for the audience especially when the style is progressive like mine. I.e each one literally breaks off of the other. 
          
          So should I?
          
          Should I not? 
          
          Readers you decide

"Do you know why I read these manga and light novels Kai-Kun?" She asked.
          
          "Given what you've been through, I imagine its an escape." He said as he took the book looking at the cover.
          
          "Not at all, I realize that this world is full of things that we would rather not know about. Crime, malice, hatred, disease, death... and all of these books, expose those things totally and completely.... I will never read a single word that will lie to me.
          
          But, despite all of the ugly in the world these pages show, they also remind me of the miracles in this world. The big ones and the little ones. Whether it be someone coming back from the brink of death or....
          
          Someone having a group of friends who help to pull them out of the fire, help them to know there are things worth doing... a life worth living." She said with a smile.

Today, I had a very interesting conversation come up when I was talking to someone who I consider a good friend. "What is your dream?" I think as we live and grow, those change and, that's OK. We're all following what I think we all consider sometimes to be "clumsy dreams"
          
          But, I don't think I ever actually explained myself here. 
          
          My dream, might sound a bit clechè and just like words but here it is. 
          
          When I was about 16, and just beginning to appreciate anime. My cousin introduced me to "Bleach" those who have heard of it will think what you will but the thing I got most from it was perseverance. 
          
          Later, although I liked anime like that still, I found I was looking for something else. That's when I found "Kanon" What an incredible and interesting story. 
          
          It layed out some things very clearly 
          -death 
          -desease
          -depression 
          -loss
          -malice 
          
          But it also showed something else 
          -perseverance 
          -joy 
          -living each day happy even if you had no idea if tomorrow would come
          -family 
          -comfort 
          -never EVER giving up on those who matter to you, even if your not sure sometimes why they matter 
          -miracles (big and small)
          
          I came across others with those same elements. Including. Anime from the same company as "Kanon" itself. 
          
          Here's the part that may seem a bit clechè and some might think a bit fake. I'm not afraid to say some might believe that. 
          
          I don't really care about the popularity or success of my books. Sure getting readers and  likes, followers, shares, they feel good. But I don't really care if only one person reads. As long as they understand and it inspires them, like those anime did for me. 
          
          Some of my content is and will continue to be brash, harsh, hard to read but, in a world like we live in now. I believe it's necessary, putting these things in such a way that hard and stubborn hearts will understand. 
          
          That's my dream.
