Text Interview with translator Andrew Driver
Posted on February 21, 2009
Hey again. Just wanted to repost this article I wrote for otakunews.com. It’s an interview with Andrew Driver, the translator for Alma Book’s English language release of Yasutaka Tsutsui‘s novel Paprika. It’s very short but I had fun doing it. Have fun, kids.
Quick update on site status
Posted on February 21, 2009Hey all. No this is not an update for the show. God knows I’ve promised the sun, moon and stars before only to embarrass myself a week later.
This is just to say that if you’re leaving comments on the site from now on, you’ll notice the comments pages are powered by IntenseDebate. If you still want to leave comments in the normal way, cool. But ID users can now leave comments for me, and I can respond quicker.
That’s all.
Yep……
Oh, I’ll just say this: Next week, OK? Something, OK?
