The Hitotoki expansion begins. Worldwide coverage to follow soon. For now, we'll start with a point far, far away from Tokyo: NYC.

We're accepting submissions for the launch during August. You can download a submissions form, or check out the site.

We have a great editor, Matt Rand, helping us watch our serial commas down in the front lines of Manhattan. Look out for a more formal introduction to Mr. Rand in an upcoming Hitotoki newsletter.

And, not to forget Tokyo, the submission process is always on, so send in your stories!
