What are you reading? Got an inspiring quote you wish to share?

Profile Information
- Date of Birth
- September 8, 1978
- About Me:
- I've recently returned to NZ after a few years based in the UK and Asia.
I'm a freelance writer, editor and project manager and currently managing a new community website - the People's Times - incorporating a Scoop-like 'citizen journalism' platform (contributions always welcome), simple Web 2.0 groupware for community organisations, and an online community noticeboard - all services are free and aimed at not-for-profits.
Outside of my day job I'm a writer (working on my first novel - dystopian/utopian speculative fiction), voracious reader and armchair philosopher.
I practice yoga regularly, meditate, walk a lot and love to cook.
