New blog post! I actually went to all the writers community groups and harvested these questions from all the aspiring writers and merged some of the questions I've been getting over the years. I spent the whole afternoon writing this blog! Hope it helps you guys. I even made downloadable templates for manuscript submissions. #timetogiveback #growthisindustry Link in bio.

Dark on the outside, bright in the inside. A person who may enjoy wearing monochrome clothing such as black and white may be deemed as someone who is dull and lack creativity. Nevertheless, never judge a book by its cover. This designer, poet, award-winning finalist author @cotypoems , founder of a publishing company called @penwingspublishing , pole dancer and traditional chinese musician beams out all her true colors that you would have never known at first hand. This is also a competition submission themed character study. #60d #canon #canonphotography #midnightmonologues #penwingspublishing (at Ciao Ristorante)

New piece today. You Reflect Me.🏮Happy Wesak day to those who are celebrating! This poem might have some influence from Sex Education and Attack on Titan. When Eric told Adam about how not loving yourself hinders your ability to love others is quite true to an extent, you can still be *in progress* while loving someone else wholeheartedly though. AOT just inspired the war and gore bit. 😂 We're quite alike, You and I. By loving you wholeheartedly, I've learned how to love me. You can still love another, While fighting an inner war, There's still beauty in seeing in color, Even if it's a mix of rainbows and gore. For more, follow @cotypoems. 📦 Pre-orders for my new workbook, Poetry & Short Stories - A Practice Book is still open! DM me or @penwingspublishing to place your orders. Launching in Q3.❤ #poetry #poem #cotywords #poetry #words #quotes #poetrycommunity #poetsofinstagram #writer #life #author #writingcommunity #writers #poem #word #wordoftheday #writingprompts #writersofinstagram #writing #haiku #wordsmith #words #poetryisnotdead #poetrylovers #poetryislife https://www.instagram.com/p/CPVG5i2Fn85/?utm_medium=tumblr

Ah, it's that time of the year again where everyone posts about their end-of-the-year-recaps. Well here's mine! 🙏The good stuff I'm so THANKFUL for this year: - The most amazing, adventurous trip to Myanmar with the most amazing bf who planned everything for this Princess who can't book anything to save her life - Got into bouldering recently..doing v2s..half of v3s. - Got my splits after training for it every alternate day for 8 months thanks to my pole teacher's training techniques! - Poethree O'Clock launch! - The AMAZING gothic photoshoot that followed up after! - @penwingspublishing first intern, Siti Aishah! - Completed FF7 Remake, FF8 and FF10 on my PS4 - Discovered Demon Slayer, the best anime in my life - Composed music on my erhu - Professionally wrote lyrics and melody and got paid for 2 pop songs although they're not released yet - Started on the Penwings secret project - Bought a toner and treated my face better with some masks. I don't have a skin routine. I just use soap. *I know, it's bad* - AMAZING speaking opportunities for both my designing and author life. I had a personal record breaking attendance of 779 people for my Digital Beta Testing talk. - Got Weihan onboard to help me out with the canggih Penwings site you see today. - Drew more - Started PENWINGS PODCAST on Insta!! Can't believe I have 7 episodes! - Did an FF8 erhu cover with Farouk! - Released my Audiobooks!! - Practiced singing and acting more. - My amazing friends, you know who you are. - Bought a package for eyelash extensions. They're the best. They make me feel pretty. 👎The not so good stuff: - Some friends drifted away, some, I cut off. - Philip isn't in Malaysia cause of Covid and I've been sad the whole year. - Some speaking events I had lined up got canceled. - Bookstores taking a hit. - Because of my multiple interests, I only read 20 books this year. I didn't reach my 40 book target. - I lost my temper a few times and I regret it always. Yup, I definitely might be a high-functioning ADHD person. https://www.instagram.com/p/CJTcmT_Feqf/?igshid=1dlqo7zuupycl

Helloooo my readers and friends!👋 Here are some PP updates: 1. A poetry title planned for publishing this year (Tasha Lim @penciledwords) has been pushed to next year due to Covid. I'm sad. 🥺 I was genuinely excited to debut her this year to all of you. But it's okay, it'll be a better year next year, hopefully. 2. I'm also in the process of building a new and exciting product for @penwingspublishing. Will share a sneak peak of it soon. It's my next milestone in life. ☺️ Unrelated, but my baby hairs are out of control in this pic. Haha. https://www.instagram.com/p/CG_ZiH_lr3u/?igshid=j7ls04j6hgyz

Was creeping on my #midnightmonologues and #daylightdialogues hashtags and wanted to throwback this photo by @elvinareads. So pretty. I think I featured her on @penwingspublishing but not on here. 🤔 Remember to leave us a review on Goodreads after reading our titles! It'll help a lot. Right now: I'm in the process of recording the #midnightmonologues audiobook and getting ready for the Poethree Boxset Launch on 8th August 2020! Pre-orders will be open soon. ♥ 🎉 More on www.penwings.com #books #flatlay #photography #poetry (at Subang Jaya) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB7I7B2lgbj/?igshid=jnh752o86l53

Hey guys, this is my third illustrated, short story journal #WDYNM that I was planning to release in April in the April's @popularmalaysia BOOK FAIR. It will be bundled in my Box Set, Poethree O'Clock along with the hardcover versions of #daylightdialogues and #midnightmonologues for RM99.90. Of course, the launch date has been postponed because my printer is closed too and can't get the boxes out in time. 💔 No worries, @penwingspublishing current titles can still be delivered to you via @mphclick @amazon @bookaliciousmy (autographed copies here) as well as e-books on Amazon Kindle. Let's just all stay home and use this time to reflect, grow and get extremely creative. 😊 I'm writing, journalling, reading and online learning more too. It takes my mind away from all the anxiety and loneliness my mind wanders off to sometimes. Cheers, to a better day. ☀ #books #poetry #journal #health #mind #mindfulness #strength #itwillend #stayhome #dudukrumah (at My Home) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-WJNsPJ_eT/?igshid=1go7shi3947u

Okay, so this week I had two speaking/mentoring engagements back to back. My health is taking its toll on me. 🥶 I was lucky enough to be selected to share my thoughts and entrepreneurial journey at the People, Plastic and Our Planet Workshop by MESTECC as part of the Panel! Also played my part as a mentor along with these phenomenal people: @azranosmanrani @rubens_flow @seifip.kitchen @xiaobaz @saikit.ng @heislyc 😊 Thanks @dashinsights for the invite!
