About Me

I love language, which is why I started this blog, and have now released an anthology called "Down the Block" with contributions by bloggers and writers from around the world. You can get the book at Amazon and other online booksellers, and can get a download at Scribd.com. I speak Japanese pretty well and am a native English speaker. I love to translate various languages, and teach English as a Second Language (ESL) to adults, which is really enjoyable. I also work in radio at the World's Greatest Newspaper.
