Nonfiction

In addition to the works listed below, I wrote articles on Japanese Animation for Anime Fantastique and Manga Max back in the 90s. I also wrote a weekly column on Shojo (girls) Anime in 1999 and 2000 for Mania.com.

Here you can read a sample: Lilac Hair and Enormous Eyes, an article about some of the tropes of the anime world.
