#BookReview Kowabana: 'True' Japanese scary stories from around the internet: Volume Thirteen
By: Tara A. Devlin
Started reading #Kowabana 13 last night. Better than 12 and 11. Not as good as the first 5 Kowabana. No surprise there, hard to find new engaging creepy material after 12 volumes. Stories in 13 have been creepy enough that I kept reading till midnight, waiting for a snoozer. So far, there has only been one real dud.
#writing Nothing I can directly use, but a good reminder of themes I have not used yet and useful vocabulary

Most of what I read are translations which means they are from small press, not indie. But looking at my bookshelf and ereader there is one indie author I have tons of stuff from. Tara A. Devlin. A rich source of all things creepy and Japanese

I may be about to start a Kowabana kick. I need a good refile of Japanese Internet horror.
I already down loaded her last two books "free" as a supporter.
