It's official: I am the Japanese translator of Katherine Govier's marvellous novel THE GHOST BRUSH/THE PRINTMAKER'S DAUGHTER (Canada/US). It's going to be exciting! Japan needs more CanLit!

So excited to know that my short story "The Man Who Sells Clouds" will be included in the May issue of The Montreal Review!

Congrats, Leslie!
