[The inspiration for creating bold, large-print books] My mother is hard of hearing and doesn't watch TV, but she loves reading, has a sharp mind, and thankfully, has never suffered from dementia. But one day, she was no longer able to read the fine Ming font, and she stopped reading and began spending all day in a daze. Worried about developing dementia, we tried magnifying glasses and glasses, but they didn't work, and she couldn't even read books with fine, large print. As a test, I published a bold, large-print book on Kindle and showed it to her. She was delighted, saying, "I can read this without glasses!" I read it all in one day, and even said, "Please continue reading next time." (laughs) I eagerly await the delivery of my large-print, bold books to my front door from Amazon. I keep them lined up on a small bookshelf by my bed and reread them whenever I forget about them. My editor myself developed cataracts, which made the text blurry, and I gradually drifted away from reading, but the bold print makes it easier to read, and I've been able to rediscover the joy of turning the next page. I would be happy if I can bring the joy of reading back to those whose eyes have started to blur. Even if you don't read much and are tired of the small print on your smartphone, I hope you'll enjoy the thrill of digging through a novel in one go!
