Shiki News-Quick Update About Blog and YouTube Channel

Hi friends. First of all let me start off by apologizing for the lack of updates.

As you know, Shiki closed its doors inworld back in August of 2014. So it's been two months since and I have been busy with some projects I'd started to work on about a year ago.

As some of you might know, I started writing over a year ago, mostly about travel and food as both of these are what I'm passionate about. As I continued to write, I decided to start a blog along the way. And if that wasn't enough, I started a YouTube channel about 2 months ago.

So while I'm still debating whether I should start designing for Shiki inworld again remains to be determined, I would like to invite you to see what I've been doing outside of Second Life.

My main focus for both the blog and YouTube channels are food and travel, which means lots of travel stories, food reviews and unique recipes cooked up in my tiny urban kitchen in Tokyo. It would be awesome to have you guys check them out and hopefully, subscribe to my blog and YouTube channels.

As my Shiki members have always been important to me, I decided to do something special just for you guys.

If you come over to check them out and subscribe to one of them ( my blog or YouTube channel ), I will send you a gift of a Shiki clothing of your choice, any that you want currently available on the marketplace. If you decide to subscribe to both the blog and YouTube channel, I will give you an exclusive that I'm creating this week, just for my Shiki subscribers.

To participate in this offer, please follow these simple guidelines. 

1. Visit my blog or YouTube channel.

2. Subscribe to the blog and youtube channels.

3. Send me a note INWORLD to avatar Shinichi Mathy. Please let me know your name ( the name you use to subscribe to my blog and youtube channels ) and if you subscribed to my blog, my youtube channel or both.

4. Wait for your gift to arrive!

Now if you do enjoy what you see on my youtube channel, please LIKE the videos and comments are always appreciated. I would love to get to know you guys on a personal level so please don't be shy.:)

As for new releases, I am planning to release a handful of outfits before the holiday season. As always thank you so much for being patient and for your support all these years. Without you guys, SHIKI wouldn't have existed.

Shiki is now closed

To all Shiki fans and loyal customers,

My name is Shinichi Mathy, the owner and designer of the Shiki brand in SL. I am sad to inform you that I have decided to close Shiki. All Shiki landmarks will no longer work as the sim has been sold off to a buyer.

I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you for the love and support you have all given me throughtout my career in SL. I have enjoyed every step of the way and cherish the memories I have had with designing in SL. 

During my time in SL, I've been fortunate to have met some of the most awesome people, including my loyal customers, my VIP members and colleagues whom I've had the privilege and honor to have worked with. 

Finally I would like to thank everyone for allowing me to share my creativity in this virtual world. It's been a great ride and although it has ended for now, who knows what the future holds.

For now, the former Shiki has ended. However I have plans to open a smaller boutique style shop in SL in the very near future.

Stay tuned. And once again, thanks so much. 

With much love

Shinichi Mathy
