I enjoy writing, language study, and world-building, and this is where I get to indulge freely in these interests. Here you can find my fiction, poetry, and nonfiction; details about the fantasy world(s) I am building and RPG campaigns that I run in them; rules for running those campaigns, and potentially useful terms from my Japanese study. I hope you find something that interests, amuses, informs, or entertains you!

Hello – I love your blog! I am interested in featuring some of your Japanese-related content on my Japanese-learning site, http://www.kanshudo.com. I’m thinking of setting something up focused on kotowaza / jojijukugo. Perhaps something like this – https://www.kanshudo.com/word/畏怖嫌厭, maybe combined with a regular email to our learners. I would of course attribute and link back to you. Please let me know if you’d be interested in discussing!
Best regards,
Jonathan Kirk.
Hello – Jonathan Kirk again. I am really enjoying your posts, and clearly we share the same political views too judging by the recent ones! I don’t want to pester you, but if we can help each other out via cross-promotion (or actually, if you’re OK with me just promoting your content along the lines in my last comment), I’d love to set that up.
Hi My name is Megumi,
I read your posts of useful Japanese phrases, and I was very impressed with the selection!
Very useful tool for the students!
If you are open to any suggestion on the links, https://www.kanshudo.com/ would be a great fit. They have a large variety of efficient Kanji learning and Japanese language studies
Sincerely,
Megumi Parker
Found your page after researching 珍紛漢紛. Love your explanation and love to explore the Japanese language. Thanks for your input and stimulus..
It’s my pleasure! 🙂
Hey, awesome website. I’m a little over a year into studying Japanese pretty intensively. I love learning about Yojijukugo. I really like your interpretations on them and you’ve identified some really cool ones. Thanks for sharing, and cheers!
Good to hear! If you run into any sayings or yojijukugo that I haven’t covered yet, please feel free to share! 😀
Thanks again for maintaining this great blog! After thinking about it for what feels like years, I finally decided to write up a little review of your blog.
Blog review: Landofnudotcom (landofnu.com)
I freaking love this blog dude. The level of detail in the Japanese language entries is just *chef’s kiss*. Seriously, if you haven’t written a book about Japanese yet, people are missing out.
