Howdy From Japan!

Hi Everybody!

I'm new here and totally overwhelmed with all the stuff to read here (and excited of course).

I'm a ghostwriter who primarily does web content but I want to do more book ghostwriting. I'm here to learn, and also help out wherever I can, chat with other writers, waste time when I should be working, etc.

I live in Chiba, Japan, just outside of Tokyo, and writing about Japan is one of my passions. Other fave topics are language learning and expat stuff. I also write fiction and song lyrics (mostly for bands in Tokyo).

Okay, that's enough; this isn't my user profile! Anyway, I'm looking forward to spending some serious time here hanging out. Thanks in advance for all the info I'm about to delve into!

Wow... thanks for all the replies! The popcorn's on the stove as we speak.

Thanks a lot everybody! You all are cool.

Yeah, these days songs are most of what I write. I think songwriting gives you an immediate kick - you write it and then you can play it. Plus it's cool to hear a band playing in front of a bunch of people and the singer's singing your words.
