In 1976 – 1979 I completed a Freelance and Creative writing course in the U.K.
And in 2008, I did a revision in Short story writing (UK).
In 2008, I resigned from the hospitality industry to concentrate on my writing.
In 2009, because of the interest I was experiencing, I focused on writer development coaching.
