Hello. I'm new here (hence the intro). Name's Hollan. Let's see, I'm from the US but I live in Kita-Narashino, Chiba-ken, Japan. It's a small suburb about one hour southeast of Tokyo. Durning the day I'm a mild mannered English teacher. While at night I pull out my trusty Macbook and transform into Super Writer!

*deludes self with the fantasy*

Umm, maybe not.

I write mostly YA and I guess it would be YA fantasy. Although I'm also interested in writing YA historical novels and things of that nature. I have 3 completed manuscripts and I'm playing the query game right now with agents. My least favorite game in the world, btw! But if I ever wanna get published, right?

Some of the things I like to do in my free time (besides write, of course) include traveling, photography, reading and playing video games (when I should be outside, but it is raining. . . . Land of the Rising Sun my a-)

Ahh, nevermind ^_^

Well, I hope to have some fun here and improve my writing! Ganbatte ^_^

hello Hollan - I'm a newbie too :)

I lived and taught English in Japan for almost a year in 1987 (I think) - I lived in Mito - a city North of Tokyo, in Ibaraki prefecture.

Good luck with your super-writing!

Hajimemashite! Sonya desu. Yoroshiku. :D

I've probably screwed that up entirely, I'm still learning. But welcome! You'll like it here.
