About the author
Oh Huishan (31st October 1981) is a self published author and a stress management coach by training. She is also the Chapter Administrator of Association of Independent Authors (Chapter Singapore). She dropped out of diploma school and so her highest level of qualification is the O Levels with 8 subject passes. Oh Huishan is an ex new age junkie turned Christian turned current devoted follower of Goddess of Mercy. Due to combating with her long term ailment, the mental condition schizophrenia since being diagnosed in 2004, she decided to use writing as an anchor amidst her chaos and inner turmoil. From barely being able to write her own name to self publishing her debut book "Words That I Can't Say --- A Workbook For Journal Therapy", she has found writing to be very therapeutic. Her concentration span is improving as the days go by and it was because of the inability to focus for too long that she produced a short debut book. Her 2nd book, What Comes Naturally... Before I Forget will also be a short book but will be on pieces of lyrical prose and very very short stories. Oh Huishan is releasing her 2nd book as an ebook first and then as a print edition later on. Her third project will be a test on her stamina to write a short novel, a step further than a short book but not as long as a typical novel. Listening to music all day long is a daily must for her. She simply cannot do without music. Sometimes when medication numbs her feelings, she listens to emotional songs and feels like a normal person again. At other times, she just listens to music to imagine about what next she should write. It helps her with inspiration. Meaningful lyrics of songs helps to give her inspiration too! There are times when she has so much to say and because of that sometimes she cannot read books because her mind is overactive and it in turn needs an output of writing. And so she tries to write snippets of stuff here and there until her mind is rested enough to read books.
