Basic Info BioThere once was a dour old curmudgeon,
Whose stinginess filled his family with dudgeon,
'Til a disgruntled heir,
Crept behind his chair,
And beat him to death with a bludgeon.

emsworth.)Foo Sek Han is a Malaysian ethnic Chinese student in Malaysia, and has just concluded his degree in Software and Animation in the unfortunately-named Multimedia University. He is currently doing an LLB programme in Inti University.
He used to write a lot of humour fantasy fiction, but has grown lazy throughout his university years and still isn't sure when he's going to return to that. He is now more into urban fantasy, sci-fi and horror, though he'd like a steampunk fiction but he doesn't know any. There were once or twice a few attempts at drawing which never quite succeeded beyond drawing cute designs on the autograph books of old friends, and a comic strip idea which never quite took off.
Years later he'll discover someone appropriated his characters and dropped them into a semi-pornographic comic, but he'll be too tired and upset to get angry anymore.
Foo Sek Han is now actively involved in more reading (novels and comics) and occassional Internet Mischief, and enjoys writing about himself in the third person because it makes him feel important and interesting, and as if he is writing his own blurb in a world-famous novel.

If you like what you see, feel free to make acquaintance with me and we will consider over the health issues behind such activities like defenestration and sort.
