We welcome 2010! It's the year of the white tiger and the Chinese regard tiger years as 'interesting'. This means it will be full of challenges and unexpected things are likely to happen. In other words, it will be anything but dull. So depending on how you look at it, it could be a year of opportunities, for with challenges and changes come opportunities but we must be prepared for those opportunities. How shall we prepare ourselves? Well, by tying lose ends in our lives, making sure our work is done to the best of our abilities and being alert and ready to do better. Easier said than done because it means we have to work hard. As the saying goes, 'Opportunity comes to those who work for it'.

Forgive me for being preachy but I am really admonishing myself. At the same time, I am excited for we already have a few great books that are ready to be published in the next few months; we will be preparing to take these books to international fairs; and we hope to do much more in Malaysia through the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators. Among others, we will be working with the Society to hold regular activities that will be useful to Children's Book Writers and Illustrators and we believe we will find talent here. LT
