My Blogs

I blog because I have something to say.

— Eddie Huang

"A gifted writer"

A gifted versetile writer who writes excellent stories and poems on the invisibles, pariahs, margins, aged, weaklings of our society. A rising star on the literary firmament.

Praise for my writing

“Your story Undersell left me with a lump in my throat, so did your poem, He also lights candles.”

Praise for my poem "Elderly Men Two"

"A finely honed observational piece recording the minutiae of everyday life. Rendered with the author’s customary poetic aplomb suffused with a Borges like quality of the mythic."
