Description: Based in Tokyo, Japan, SWET comprises people engaged not only in the three professions of writing, editing, and translating, but also in teaching, research, rewriting, design and production, copywriting, and other areas related to the written word in Japan. Its membership is defined less by occupation than by a desire to share experience, information, and expertise involving English writing and publishing. In addition to publishing a regular newsletter, SWET holds monthly meetings in Tokyo. SWET has also published Wordcraft, a collection of Newsletter articles from SWET's first ten years, and the Japan Style Sheet, a Japan-specific style guide.
