WEDDING SYNOPSIS
Papa’s sister is getting married today!
Daddy helps me with my flower girl bouquet. We witness in delight and giggle
with glee but deep down in our hearts, we’re sad you see? When will my fathers
be able to wed? I can only hope for change, in the future ahead.
ABOUT ME
I was born in Kuala Lumpur,
Malaysia. Chinese by race, I was educated in the British system and spoke
predominantly English at home with a colourful mix of Cantonese colloquialism.
I had a wonderful childhood and showed early signs of being a passionate reader
with hours poured into books and learning the art of skipping chores and meals,
just to finish that extra chapter! My earliest literary influence was Enid
Blyton, the one author that could completely immerse me into a wondrous world
of books. My current bookshelves are filled with Enid Blyton classics, in hope
that one day; my daughter would enjoy them as much as I did.
My tastes in books as I
became a young adult turned to Fantasy and this genre would keep me occupied
and enthralled for the next two decades. David Eddings became my first love and
the start of a deep addiction that at times led to tears when the series would
end!
Marriage and parenthood
followed which unfortunately ended in a sad divorce but start of yet another
literary journey. I turned to Paulo Coelho’s spiritual words to get through
this difficult phase in my life and in many ways allowed the slow minutes
become beautiful days. This turning of events however, also ignited the need to
write and hence the commencement of a very new chapter in my life.
Divorce was of course a very
tumultuous time. I was most concerned about my daughter and wanted to shelter
her from the unavoidable difficulties. At the time, she was too young to really
understand the ramifications of divorce but old enough to know something was
amiss. I was then inspired to create Pigeonhole Books.
