Beyond Editing:
Writing, Community, and Creative Work
Alongside my editorial and coaching work, I’m a passionate member of Japan’s English-language literary scene. I teach creative writing, organize workshops, host open mics, run an independent literary press, and publish my poetry and fiction.
My two poetry collections, Pause :: Heartbeat and Cosmic Nervosa, are mystical portals into an underground Tokyo, spanning galaxies in crisis, rain, skyscrapers, and cyberpunk moons.
