    Greetings from a tropical urbanite

    Hi all, I'm 19 and I live in Singapore. I've been writing since I was 10 years old, and I recently got started on drawing. I write fantasy, urban fantasy, science fiction, non fiction and postmodern fiction.


    My art portfolio


    An excerpt:

    "...Standard poses of the human anatomy—hands on hips, one shoulder forward; angled hip, weight on one leg, head tilted back; back arched, breasts forward; legs folded underneath, hands prowling out of the paper, eyes hungry.

    Closeups of the face, hair lifted by a mysterious wind. Lips puckered; lips parted; lips turned up; lips turned down..."

    I mostly read non fiction books. The only non fiction I read are short stories or anthologies. I'm interested in art, architecture, futurism, neuroscience, mythology, anthropology and a myriad other topics.

    Hello driftglass, welcome to WF. Enjoy.
    The sand of the desert is sodden red, -
    Red with the wreck of a square that broke; -
    The Gatling's jammed and the colonel dead,
    And the regiment blind with dust and smoke.
    The river of death has brimmed his banks,
    And England's far, and Honour a name,
    But the voice of schoolboy rallies the ranks,
    "Play up! play up! and play the game!"

    Vitai Lampada (Sir Henry Newbolt, 1897)

    Hello there. Welcome to the community.

    Hey there, driftglass. Hope you'll enjoy it here. If you don't mind me asking, which part of Singapore are you from? (Sorry, it's just part of being Malaysian )
