What helps the conversation begin well

A short first message with your name and organisation, what you are trying to build, the dates you have in mind, and where you see your work meeting mine. Fifty careful words do more than five hundred general ones. We reply in business hours, Kuala Lumpur time, Monday to Friday, usually within three working days.


Before you write

Most of what I do is conversation. The ones I value most are the ones I did not begin: they arrive because someone, somewhere, saw something in the work and chose to write.

When I say yes, I give the work my full attention. Tell me plainly what you are building and I will tell you straight whether I am the right person for it. Either way, someone will have read your enquiry.


Privacy

I keep enquiry data only so that I can reply. Personal data is processed in accordance with the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (Malaysia) and the General Data Protection Regulation 2016 (where applicable). It is not shared with third parties. I keep no marketing list and send no newsletter, so come back to the site when something here interests you. The full commitment is in the privacy policy.

Write honestly and plainly, in your own voice. Every enquiry is read.
