Kizuna: Fiction for Japan

“We are a group of writers in Japan who are publishing an ebook to benefit survivors of the March 11, 2011 Tohoku-Kanto earthquake and tsunami. This project has two goals: to raise money for earthquake victims and to help overseas readers understand more about Japan and the kindness and hospitality of its people. All proceeds from the sale of the ebook will be donated to the Japanese Red Cross.

Chapter themes are:

Tohoku people & their kindness
Foreigners’ stories of adapting to Japanese culture and customs
Daily life in Japan
Coming to feel that Japan is home; experiences of feeling welcome here
Discovering beautiful places in Japan
Japanese people’s strength during disasters
Traveling in Japan & learning more about the country/culture (we have great stories from both foreign & Japan-raised writers)
Funny stories about culture/language mistakes or travel mishaps”
