I’m Writing a Travel Book

What do you get when you combine more than a decade’s worth of notes and rough drafts, expand on them, and edit down the final result? A book!

After more than a decade of slowly accumulating materials, I’m finally turning it into a travel book about making the most of your visit to Japan. Until the end of the year, you can pre-order the book at a discount and get the audiobook thrown in for free.

Where To Buy Stuff

Trump’s tariffs have thoroughly screwed things up for basically everybody everywhere, to the point where I can no longer ship most things to the USA from Japan, as Japan Post has ceased providing those services for the foreseeable future. As such, I now have to put in extra effort to supply US-sourced options for US buyers and other options for everyone else (international shipping from the US can be prohibitively expensive, too, though it’s possible). I’ll add suppliers to the links below as I figure them out.

If there is a specific product that you want (a print, a shirt, a zine, etc) that is not currently available in your region, contact me and I’ll try to figure something out.

US-Based Sales

A large selection of prints available at drm.darkroom.com
- Printed and shipped from within the USA, international shipping available.

International Options (multiple global fulfillment centers)

(coming soon, sorting things out)

Everything Else

(coming soon, sorting things out)

Custom prints produced in Japan and shipped to most of the world, excluding the US: please get in touch with details of what you’re looking for.
