The original two-part interview with CC author Keiko Nagita in 2005 in Japanese as published in the magazine Children’s Literature, published by Japan Children’s Writers Association (児童文学協会).  This is a bi-monthly magazine. Part 1 of the interview was published in the October-November edition, and Part II was published in the December-January edition. These issues are no longer in print. But when we reached out, the publisher kindly gave us a PDF copy.
