Sorry for the recent spat of password-protected entries – it really isn’t my intention to tempt my readers like I’m dangling a treat in front of you and not give it, and I suppose it may be a little insulting, but there are things that I only want a handful of people to read that [...]

There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.

Sorry for the lack of posting, but I’ve been out a lot lately.
I’m actually very inspired at the moment to write a further 7 short stories to compile into a collection of short stories, of which I’ll self-publish it. :D It has been a long, suppressed dream – something I thought of as ridiculous and [...]

My Bangkok update will be a little slow – immediately after I reached home on Thursday afternoon, I am confronted with the fact that I’ve a Price Theory mid-sem test next Tuesday and I’ve done absolutely nothing about it. :) No panic buttons pressed yet though, as our lecturer has supposedly kindly divulged specific information [...]
