I Write Good Words

Hi, I'm Sek Han. I do corporate legal work in the daytime and write short stories in between. 

"How do you manage?" I don't. I try to not write bad words and then hope people agree the words are good. 

I've co-edited two anthologies and do translation work (Malay, English and Chinese).

You can find my full portfolio of works here. 

If you like words that are good, feel free to reach out via sekhan.foo@gmail.com
