Bio
I am looking to write the stories of my life. Stories that shaped who I am and bring to life the creatures I have imagined. Stories where muted voices speak and where the unsighted travel to worlds far brighter and colourful.

Marcus
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. It was one of those nights when the humidity was at its most suffocating, and the nauseating heat further magnified the tense atmosphere inside the cabin. As the night deepened, the shadows offered no solace from the heat and the depravity while three kindred souls awaited their fate.

The Girl Who Stopped El Niño
Everything about that summer of 1992 turned out exactly how it promised to be. It was the hottest summer in years, largely because of El Nino. There was a massive drought in the countryside and the farmers could not plant their rice for months. It hadn’t rained for weeks. What used to be fissures in the muddy fields, had now grown to full-sized cracks. These were hard and uncertain times.

A Good Citizen
“Wake up, Citizen!” says the voice of her virtual assistant, Virgil. She opened her eyes to a stream of white artificial lights. A wave of consciousness immediately came flooding in, and her existence finally made sense. Girl is a name she gave herself. In reality, she is Citizen 2121798. That is her serial number, which is also tattooed on her left forearm. That was in case she forgot who she really was. They didn’t even bother giving her a name. She, after all, was a property of the Crown.
