Hi everyone, as the screen name suggests... I'm Josh. I am a recently 25 m currently living in Columbus, Ohio. I work as a public speaker and am trying to get my writing career really going. At the moment I write for the online magazine TokiDokiJournal.com. If you like anything Japanese check it out.

I really hope to record some books soon. I have a passion for literature and the spoken word. Please, anyone, email me to talk or chat.

Hope to contribute soon!

Thanks for the info... Alas, I speak Japanese (stadard) pretty well. A little Korean, but the most I fee comfortable with in Chinese is saying thank you. I am still exploring around, but again, thanks for the heads up.

Greetings Josh
I took a peek at tokidokijournal.com.

My eldest son works for the San Diego Comicon. So through him, I acutally knew the term manga. I wouldn't have known it otherwise. I'm not up much on all the Japanese comics (terms), but my son certainly is.

As a graphic designer, I am interested in the genre though, due to the art style.

Good luck to you in your public speaking and writing ventures. And, welcome aboard!
Kathy
