The ladder of success is best climbed by stepping on the rungs of opportunity,
said Ayn Rand
Today, though semi-retired, I am a writer and story content editor for fiction. I am presently revising my first novel, Fortune and Misery, which I wrote while undergoing chemotherapy many years ago. The manuscript had received praises and a contract for traditional publishing in the US. Due to legal issues, I had been unable to sign.
To break the monotony of the writing mill, I volunteer as tutor of Memoir and Narrative Writing as well as Hawaiian Hula at Wesley School for Seniors in Sydney.
In the past, I had been a fashion designer, marketer, special events organizer, and writer-editor-publisher dabbling into fiction and non-fiction writing and photography.
I believe that immersing one's self into different fields of interest like meeting people from all walks of life and knowing how they live and exist does transform a person into a writer.
Meet me. Take any of my classes.
