Happy New Year 2010!
Posted in Random on January 6th, 2010 by Christine Jalleh – Be the first to commentHappy New Year! I hope that you’ve had a bright start to 2010 
I know I had a *really* busy time wrapping up a much-delayed communications and translations project while working on a few articles.
The fun part about being a freelance writer is that you never know who’ll meet and what your next story is going to be!
One of the articles is an interview with Francesca Kiing (read her inspiring story “Beading Glory” published in StarMag), a creative, energetic and friendly entrepreneur I met at a wedding dinner.
Other articles I was working on included:
- a travel piece on the quaint city of Xiamen (published in Air Macau’s inflight magazine), which also has a Chinese version;
- a feature article on water quality issues around the world;
- a beauty feature on common hair problems and natural / organic solutions for them and
- the alarming decline of wild animals in Kenya
Another fascinating topic I was working on is the practice of trap-neuter-and-release for stray dogs and cats in Malaysia. And getting to know some truly self-less folks known as “independent pet rescuers”.
As much as I’d love to share these articles with you, some of them are only available upon subscription or in hardcopy format.
What’s in store for 2010? The crystal ball reflects 1-2 consultancy projects in the works and some travel…
How about you? Have you listed your New Year resolutions?
Here’s to a healthy and happy start for everyone
