A casual virtual meet-up, organized with North American time zones in mind but open to all wordsmiths with a connection to Japan, wherever they are. Self-introductions and general talk. The discussion was so involving that we decided to hold an additional gathering in September to continue the conversation and actually get to the main topic!
