Ever since the Corona virus lock-down I’ve been working at home and I have to admit that it’s testing my self-discipline (then again, it’s coinciding with the structural edit on my WIP that I realise I have to do and I have to admit that I’m procrastinating because I dread the amount of work IContinue reading “Moonlake as a person and random life update”

The Chinese influence in my Writing
Aside from the about page, I don’t think I’ve properly introduced myself so let’s do this here up front. I’m a Chinese who migrated to Australia at the age of 12 after I completed primary school.

This doesn’t mean you push your own emotions aside or never speak up for yourself. Just wait till you feel you are calmContinue reading “What I learnt from the ePub (2)”
What I learnt from the ePub (1)
Even though I ultimately decided that I’m a bad match for the Excursions epub, it has been a fruitful and educational enterprise for me across multiple areas. In this post, I would like to document all of the things I’ve learnt about myself as a writer and a person and about communication and collaboration. ThisContinue reading “What I learnt from the ePub (1)”
