No.6 http://aonghascrowe.wordpress.com/ Aonghas Crowe No.6 is a novel about life behind Japanese bars, the Justice system in Japan, drug abuse and its consequences, an other quirkiness. This is a work in progress which is evolving as I plug away at the second draft. In the coming months I should be able to update the blog, that is add new installments and chapters, so do check in from time to time. The very first installment, posted in June, can be found here: http://aonghascrowe.wordpress.com/2009/06/21/cuckoo-cuckoo/ Another novel I am currently tinkering with, A Woman’s Nails, is a novel about laying a past love to rest, one woman at a time. Set in Japan, the novel also explores the life of expats, the relationships between men and women, and Japanese culture. http://aonghascrowenails.wordpress.com/ All comments are appreciated. Happy reading! Fukuoka
InventorSpot http://www.yourdomain.com Unknown Ahh, Japan... land of the rising sun, rising sin, and rice with nearly every meal. In Japan everything is possible and possibly everything is available - often with a unique and unexpected twist. Vending machines dispensing whisky, frozen meat, live rhinoceros beetles or schoolgirl panties? Where else but in Japan, where urban legends live and die on streets that have no names. As the Japanese Innovations Writer for InventorSpot.com and an unabashed Japanophile, I take great joy in channeling the relentless tsunami of on-the-edge Japanese ideas and products, each wondrous one revisiting and reinventing 1950s Japanese Transistor Radio Syndrome for the post-atomic age!
