about me

I am a freelance illustration artist based in Dubai. I like to write and like to read books. I dont feel I am talented at writing a full book, but my friends say that I write well about certain pesonal things that I feel strongly about, the only problem is, that once Im exhausted I cant go on, and I never return to the same thought a second time. Maybe thats not a good thing for writers, but I am hoping to write something long and maintain the intesity in it too... someday... My favourites (maugham, dickens, carre, uris, )are many but I admit being out of touch past few years...
