There's always time to write fiction. Have a cup of tea and read my work! If not tea, well, whatever you like to chill with.
Blog posts, articles, videos, animation or even game narrative, I know how to mix it up.
There's always something to explore. Fun is where you find it and it so happens, I like having it.
Sarah has a bachelor degree in media arts, a diploma in interactive media design, certificates in acting, lighting, art of voice and much more.
She can speak English, Malay and basic German. While she has qualifications in video, web, animation and print, her forte lies in creative writing. Stories, fiction and game narratives. She likes to engage to audience in any kind of medium.
Sarah likes to find fun in the name of research. She goes on weekend adventures to prove that Singapore isn't as boring as people think it is and posts regular on her weekly adventure episodes every Monday on her blog.
She was also the N.E.mation!6 ambassador and went to visit the various animation studios in the USA with the winning team.
On the fiction side, The Steampowered Globe was one of her latest books in which she had edited with Rosemary Lim and was featured on io9.com.
Chances are if you want to find out about fiction writing in Singapore or the geek and cosplay scene, you will encounter Sarah eventually.
She would like to be a voice actress for animated characters or write for video games. For now, she writes her blog post series and novels.
Sarah is also part of the Happy Smiley Writers Group.

It's 2045 and Prix Chan is beginning her National Service. Her father, Pierre, believes she can handle it but her mother, Su, is hysterical at the thought of her daughter leaving the safety of Singapore's Green Underwater Metropolis, the Bubble G.U.M., a self-sufficient city-state protected three miles beneath the waves by a dome of chewing gum.
Little does anyone know that in less than a week Prix will cause the biggest crisis to hit Singapore since the planet went into meltdown creating a world of water and a human civilisation on the brink of annihilation.
A collaborative novel from Happy Smiley (aka, the six members of the Happy Smiley Writers Group), Bubble G.U.M. is out to prove that thought-stretching literature and revealing bikinis are not mutually exclusive.

Happiness at the End of the World is Singapore's first ever, ground-breaking, innovative speculative fiction anthology. There's only one "first ever" and this is it. Published in 2009, Happiness at the End of the World was launched at the Singapore Writers Festival. The fact that the Singapore press ignored it does not mean it did not happen.
Eight science fiction short stories with a different take of the theme of a moment of post-Armageddon happiness. Sub-genres include crime, romance and adventure with settings ranging from a desolate space station to a war-ravaged world, a jungle village to a super-clean Singapore of the future.
While the rest of the world is doom and gloom over climate change, ancient predictions of planetary alignments spelling the end of days and the potential for nuclear holocaust, one book has come to the rescue with some joy in the midst of horror.
