i was invited to this year's Singapore Writers Festival. i was
thrilled at the thought that National Arts Council considered my
writing good enough, that they considered me an author. writing and
publishing a book has always been a dream of mine. in fact, i had a
draft ready since one year back. i still remember turning down a
publisher (last year) because they wanted me to be more
"commercial" if i wanted them to publish my book. i didn't think
that that was what i wanted.
i am grateful to i-weekly for giving me the opportunity to have my
very own column. i-weekly gave me a platform to
share my thoughts with everyone. they gave me the freedom to write
on any topic that crossed my mind. and because my works got
published in a little column of mine, a publisher approached me..
finally.. my book will be out next year..3 years of preparation and
waiting.. all in good time i suppose.
i have my quirks in writing, i don't know if i should call it
"style"?
teachers, concerned parents of fans, have asked if i should
capitalize my letters as required.. if i should have my
punctuations as expected.. but i guess just like thought patterns..
some things just remain kind of a personal expression.
one
other piece of news..
i will be designing a Precious Moments figurine and proceeds will
go to charity. this is a project i'm extremely excited about. i
have been a collector for years and this opportunity to work with
the Precious Moments team is nothing short of amazing. i've
submitted my design and i'm definitely looking forward to the
launch of the figurine..
things have been great since i
came back from filming in China and KL.
work has been lined up for me, and
i will have 3 productions back to back all the way till april next
year.
the first good news i received since i came back was that my blog
was voted as the best celeb blog once again. i just want to thank
all of you for supporting me here, for liking my posts, and most
importantly, for giving me this award every year. winning 4 years
consecutively is an amazing feat and it would never have happened
if not for you guys.
next to share, my recent magazine covers
i hope you like them
