I Wrote This For You is now published! →
The author of one of my favorite websites has finally been able to publish a book of his work.
“The book is divided up into four sections; Sun, Moon, Stars, Rain – which is a tribute to Anyone Lived In A Pretty How Town by E.E. Cummings as it’s my favourite work of literature that revolves around pro-nouns.
Those four different sections collect the posts into four distinct phases that...
I look forward to the disappointment and sadness my mom will feel the day I officially move out from home (after HK next year) and leave her overbearing attitude.
