Hello, I'm Sawa Hoshizaki. I'm a writer who loves to spin stories and sentences. I've loved daydreaming since I was a child, and I often find myself immersed in my own world at random moments. This rich imagination is the source of my creative activities, and I express what I feel in my daily life as stories and essays, sometimes with a touch of black humor.

About my disability and senses

I have several mental challenges, including schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), mild personality disorder, and depression. I also have the characteristics of an HSP (highly sensitive person), and my senses are very sensitive. I am sensitive to loud noises, strong light, and smells, and my sense of taste is also sensitive. In terms of my empathy, I have a mixture of extremely high and low sides, and while I find it difficult to understand the intentions of others, I can also be deeply affected by their emotions. In movies and other things, the feelings of the characters are directly conveyed to me, and it can even be painful.

About my creative activities

Currently, I am publishing novels and essays on Kakuyomu. I also enjoy posting short videos of short jokes and waka poems on YouTube, hoping that they will reach at least one person. I don't really like being the center of attention, but I do like to express my feelings and thoughts, and writing is an important way for me to express myself.

Posting on "Sawa's Daily Life"

On this website, "Sawa's Daily Life," I write about my daily life and realizations in diary form. I hope to share with you the real daily life of living with my own disability, along with a little humor. I would be happy if my perspective, such as the sensitivities I have gained in solitude and what I have learned from interacting with people with various disabilities, can help to spread even a little empathy and understanding.

Thank you for your support.
