Who am I?
Anaïs FOURNY
Emrys
Curious about anything and eager to learn, I love to discover unfamiliar fields and go out of my comfort zone.
In 2019, dissatisfied by my previous profession, I leave everything behind and go to Japan, wishing to immerse myself in a culture that always fascinated me.
The best decision in my life.
Since then, I make a living of my passions for languages, words, stories and imagination. I especially enjoy translation, as each new work is an opportunity to start anew.
Now living in France (but with an eye on Japan, still), my motto is to give my readers the best possible experience.

Hobbies
Stories
Novels, mangas, movies, games... Be it written, spoken, drawn or played, I love stories of any kind. I am particularly fond of well-written characters, solid world-building and subtle emotions.
Languages
Because they create bonds between us and allow us to express any shade of our intentions, I am fascinated by languages. Studying a language is diving into the culture and way of thinking of its speakers. I especially love to analyze and understand all of the subtleties of words.
Creative Writing
My imagination never sleeps and when it overflows, I put it into words. I don't especially try to publish my prose but I write a lot, on any subject that triggers my inspiration at the moment.
Mangas
Obvious for a stories AND Japan enthusiast, eh? Manga is a childhood friend of mine, and its variety makes it suitable for any evolution, any taste and any mood.
Video Games
Because they make me dream, laugh, cry or shiver, because they challenge my patience, reflexes or reflexion, video games were, are and will be a part of me. Having a soft spot for narratives, RPG are of course in my personal top.
