Article and story sources

This page is where I will link the sources I use for my articles and stories. This is a work in progress and I am currently gathering past links too.


Websites


https://yokai.com - This is my main source of information as Matthew, the man who writes and runs the site, researches into yokai and also lives in Japan.

https://en.wikipedia.org - I use wikipedia as it collates a lot of information from many books about Japan and Japanese culture which would be difficult or impossible for me to read myself. It also makes information gathering much faster and quicker. I often look down in the sources where the information has come from.
