Nanako’s Yūrei (幽霊 ghosts)

About the Substack

I'm working on my first first novel based on family secrets and various short stories. But this newsletter is for sharing writing tips and experiences with fellow writers. I hope you'll find my posts useful in your own writing journey. Thanks for reading.

About Nanako Water

Yūrei (幽霊 ghosts) haunt me. During the pandemic, I wrote 300 pages based on my Japanese immigrant parents secrets. This summer, I'm revising the entire manuscript as fiction. I'm a 60+ divorced Nisei woman who moved to Seattle in 2018.
