J-Novel Club has licensed for E-Book release ONLY:
Walking My Second Path in Life/Watashi wa Futatsume no Jinsei wo Aruku!
- Originally a web novel on Shousetsuka ni Narou. The author has written a lot of web novels on that site, but this is the only one to have been turned into a light novel to date.
- Published under Earth Star Novel.
- The web novel is ongoing, albeit on a somewhat erratic basis, with 195 chapters out at present (not divided into volumes).
- The light novel series is ongoing at 2 volumes, although there hasn't been a new one since December last year, and if you'd told me an hour ago that it had been dropped then I'd have believed you.
- Parts 1-4 of the first volume are available to read now.
 
Sam over at J-Novel Club has been assured that volume 3 is on the way, so it's definitely not dropped. Sounds like it's going to be a series that is released very slowly in Japan, but honestly i don't mind too much. Having something short and not out every other month will help me keep up with other series.
 
This week's releases:
The Rising of the Shield Hero 9 - DELAYED to mid-November. Exact date not yet confirmed.
How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom 4 (E-Book ONLY)
