March 2008 texts

I'm updating my blog from the American Club, where I'm meeting Christina Sergeant about the rewrite of my play. What play, you ask? That's for another blog entry, coming soon.

Anyhow, read and watched very little this month due to being in Hong Kong, struggling with writers' block and generally getting distracted by Scrabulous and Noggin (your fault, Bernard Koh). Must do better this month!

Didn't sleep last night. Sustaining myself on hazelnut latte and butter toffee chip cookie. So not good for me.
