Here at What can I do with a B.A. in Japanese Studies?(Shinpai Deshou) we aim to provide people with as much information on using Japanese in academic and professional fields as possible, although we know that our limited number of writers means we end up leaning more heavily towards the academic side. Lately that means we haven’t been able to give you guys non-academic advice or review general Japanese language learning materials as much as we’d like. So! How would you like to write for us?

We’re particularly interested in hearing from people who:

• Work or have worked in professional settings in or related to Japan
• Have worked at or with translation companies (we get a lot of questions about this!)
• Have experience with Japan-related societies
• Have experience with Japan-related NPOs in the US or abroad
• Would like to write reviews of online resources specifically geared towards Japanese language acquisition
• Have any other ideas about an article (or articles!) they would like to write that relates to their experiences in the Japanese field

If you think you might like to contribute to Shinpai Deshou please send us an email at shinpai.deshou@gmail.com with a brief bio and a summary of the kind of article you might like to write for us. We’re always interested in expanding our scope and providing helpful advice to our readers. Questions or comments? Let us know!

Cheers,

Shinpai Deshou Team
