DETAILS
I have more than 15 years experience in Japan as an editor, proofreader and writer--the past eight as an editor/staff writer at a leading English-language newspaper, specializing in music previews, reviews and interviews, as well as being a regular CD reviewer and book reviewer. As a long-term resident of Japan, I can write with experience and authority on the many different faces that Japan has to offer, ranging from the tradition geisha area of Kyoto to the Hysteric-Glamor chic of Harajuku. I can provide a wide range of writing solutions--news briefs, weekly or monthly roundups of specific news items/events, to in-depth feature stories. My areas of special interest are city life, especially music. I have excellent contacts in the music industry in general in Japan, and in the blues, Cajun and zydeco, genres in the States. In addition to a strong background in print journalism, I am also experience in writing for the Web and can copy that is keyword rich and easily trackable by search engines.
