The Book

My To-Do list is getting quite extensive. Top three would have to be:

     1.  Advance medical techniques/technology
     2.  Be invited to talk at TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design)
     3.  Author a book…

At the moment, let’s focus on number three.

“You are a baby, what are you going to write about?”
At 24yrs old, I am hardly a baby and I know exactly what I am going to write about. Dating.

Dating is mostly fun but at times, frustrating, puzzling, and even strange. I plan to assemble a collection of short stories about my encounters. These stories will be told from two different perspectives, mine and theirs. First, I write my version and then I get the boys to write theirs. A comparison of where these stories meet and diverge is the rub.

The biggest challenge of this project? Coercing the boys into writing their side of the story. Somehow, I don’t think “hello ex-lover, could you please write about what went on between us and how you felt? And please make sure that the analysis is enlightening, honest, and entertaining,” would provide the best results. The approach must be delicate hence this blog.

A part of this blog will document the process of assembling the book and the stories that will undoubtedly arise.

Another part will be video shorts, products of the randomness of my mind. The remaining portion will be thoughts on the topics that moved me during the day.
