This is a Japanese practice book. I'm currently learning katakana, hiragana, and the 10,000 kanji of the Japanese language. I amd currently composing a musical inspired by Japan, Hawaii and many of my European travels. Learning the Japanese language is a challenge and a high honor, as the language visually is incredible. It's slow going, yet this is my first Japanese writing practice book. I wake each morning and study in preparation for anupcoming trip to the country. It means a lot to me on a sentimental level, which is why it's priced accordingly. The proceeds from this book go directly into musical patronage of my mobile recording studio and theatrical production.
