I’ve gotten the offer letter to go to Vietnam for 4 months to write a sequel to Vixen!
I’m excited and scared at the same time- scared because of the censorship and other Vietnamese authors experiences over there. I hope it will be a soul building experience if anything…
I attended the Asia Pacific Writers Network meeting the other week which was inspiring. Again more stories about Vietnamese and Chinese censorship. I also attended a course for writing research for non academics- it didn’t teach me much I did not already know- it seems that non fiction like fiction requires a hook and a story. So it seems my life as a full time writer is already having a jump start- no need for a day job for a while!
congrats, hoa! great news. when do you leave/get back?
it’ll be great to hear about your adventures!

Hooray for you Hoa, to have all this action happening. Four weeks in Nam. Wow. Dom is over there for 6 months (coming home in a body bag) from March, I thinks.
