BLW is a creative doer. A word welder and aquatic dweller openly seeking freelance work whenever the clock ticks.

She is blessed with a heart aching desire to explore the world with pen and paper first.

Working as a journalist and editor in the food/liquor and lifestyle industry, you might often find her perusing greener pastures... but it's only after ploughing the soil, plucking the weeds, sewing the seeds and watering it to life does she let herself sit back with a corona in hand and watch the grass grow.

She has still not mastered the art of chopsticks. We all have our weaknesses.
