# Afterword

*Vol 3 - Third Wheel*


To all the backers of the Kickstarter, **MUITO OBRIGADO\!**   
To the friends who helped with handling the rewards, also **MUITO OBRIGADO\!**  
And for the last, but just as important, **MUITO OBRIGADO** to you for giving the series a chance\!   
To the special girl who was a catalyst for change in my life as I was writing this book,  **MUITO OBRIGADO**\! 💜  
Sorry it took so long for Vol 3 to come out; it is what it is\! I’m not beholden to driving stock value each quarter in this project\! Besides, I need to avoid burning out, as this project may seem easy from the outside, but it demands a lot since I’m self-publishing.  
Since I’m here anyway, if a big company wants to slap my face with a couple of millions to take over the copyright and trademarks, I’d take it and disappear into the woods and become a shaman at the next Wardruna concert near me— will still go to Magical Mirai and Miku Expo to get my Miku fix, of course\! As much as I love this project, it does seem to be growing bigger than myself, and as a simple mortal in the earthly plane, I’d love to spend more time with family and friends, touch grass, and watch/play stuff.   
I will be dead in 50 years or so anyway, so I want to make the best out of it and live with no regrets\! 🙂  
Onward to Vol 4\!
