YOU WILL NEED TO BE AN AVID READER
Currently reading three books:Tina Feys Bossypants (humour)
Type Matters by Jim Wilson (design)The Promise by Jonathan Atler (political science)which is a fascinating account of Obamas first year inoffice. One has read an unspeakable number of fantasynovels, classics and am constantly into a new
biography/autobiography.Im afraid youll never find me without a book, oldchap.
AN OBSERVER OF LIFE
Well, as far as I can tell, the person who wrote the jobdescription knows exactly what they want in acandidate for the writing position. He or she is anobserver of life and Im sure well get on very well,mostly because I feel the same way.
A PERSON WHO APPRECIATES HUMOR AND A LINEWELL WRITTEN
My favourite comedians are Stephen Fry and HughLaurie. They are very British, very witty, and terriblysuccessful. Lets have tea. Even if I dont get the job,Im sure well be able to laugh at something especially if youre based in Sentral because people-watching there is fun .

YOU MUST HAVE THE ABILITY TO SAY WHAT NEEDSTO BE SAID IN AS ELOQUENT, SUCCINCT,COMPREHENSIVE, FUNNY, WITTY AND/OR BRIEF A
MANNER AS THE CONTEXT OF THE BROCHURE,ARTICLE, AD OR ONLINE LOCATION REQUIRES.
It would be wonderful if you could read the rest of thisPDF, Im pleased to say Ive done plenty of work on myown in the performing arts and communication line
that has required the ability to write and plan in aninspired manner.
I believe I am capable of switching writing stylesaccording to your format and demographic. Samegoes for managing social media, and writing in that
context.Im quite sure that well be able to figure it outtogether. Id love to work with you. When I saw this ad,I was rather incredulous what Ive learnt over theyears matches your needs quite poetically, if I say somyself.

As for the below:
Write highly well-drafted brochure copy for our unique range ofeducational workshops. Id love to. Lets do it!
Write ad copy that delivers results. If your product is good, Ican write my heart out.
Write scripts for promo, socially conscious and fun videos.No problem. Speech + Drama background.
Come up with fun ideas for promotional activities.I feel like this would be inspired naturally by the writingprocess.
Work with the design team and other writers to developmarketing collaterals that are a cut above others in theindustry.Ditto the above. Plus I am a bit of a graphic designer myself,
so I could be another eye, if you need that. Write blog posts, tweet and post on the company's Facebook
pages.Not a problem.
The ability to handle the backend of a WordPress blog is anadvantage but not a prerequisite.
Grew up on Wordpress, cant edit CSS or Java to save my life,but am a confident user .
The ability and interest in making short videos and/orphotography is an advantage but not a prerequisite.I use a Fujifilm Finepix x-100 and am an avid amateurshutterbug. I scour Vimeo for hi-res promotional videosregularly, and am sure I can contribute positively in thisarena.

To Whom It May Concern,
I have known Ms. Ashvina Marie Naidu since 2006 (it feels much longer!), but I still remember theglowing smile which endeared me to her when we first met, a smile which has led to a lastingfriendship between us.
Ashvina, as anyo ne who knows her will attest, is kind, lively, caring, knowledgeable and expressive.She has the uncanny ability to make anyone around her feel comfortable, like a bean bag, and loved,like a self -help coach, except...she's actually genuine. On a deep, hum an -heartwave level, you can feelthe sincere joy she obtains in getting to know you.
Ashvina has that rarest of attributes: a generous spirit. She not only makes those around her feel atease and appreciated, but she also gives herself to inspire and enco urage them to be more creative,more courageous and more open minded. She dreams big, and wants you to do the same.
She is many things to many people, but she is my personal muse, counsellor, teacher and confidant. Ihave found great comfort in her suppor t, great wisdom in her advice and great joy in sharingexperiences and conversations with her. She has influenced my life in many profound and positiveways, and still does. During times when I'm down, she give me good -for -the -soul TLC, which I suspectshe has an endless supply of.
If I ever have kids, she would be their fairy godmother; her experience in theatre and educationequips her with tools to bring out the best in children, who always feel at ease with her. I believe inher capacity to love, nurtu re, instruct and inspire all those who spend quality time with her, andheartily commend you to engage her in assignments which she will undoubtedly perform to the bestof her ability.
Yours sincerely,
Joshua WK Chong Advocate & Solicitor Writer/Actor/Di rector Kuala Lumpur

To whom it may concern,
I have known Ashvina all of her life.
She is a very free spirited and creative individual who gives of herself to every project she undertakes.She immerses her self fully in a project [.] has a way with children and is able to communicate withthem on a level they understand without in any way, appearing condescending or patronizing. Shehas always been able to get her message across to them and get them to resp ond to her and deliver.
Patricia David Partner Shook Lin & Bok Kuala Lumpur
Fort*Log. The first time I heard the name I honestly thought it had something to do with videogames or paintball and it wasn't until the founder and IdeaSpout, Ashvina Naidu, explained to mewhat it really meant over brunch that I finally got it. For the love of... Glue?
So it puts the 'hands -on' back in hands -on. I quipped over a delicious Eggs Benedict and was metwith furious nodding and glee from her.
The aim of the whole construct is to encourage pe ople to intuitively interact with their surroundings,be more tuned to the world of creativity and how it can be tied in with logic because those two aren'tas separate of entities as one might have thought and to use their senses, all five of them.
The w orld today seems to be telling the us to be wary of creativity and the thought process and thisis seen in many modes of education. It's sterile,clean and methodical. It can also inhibit for personaldevelopment, if not utilised properly.
Fort*Log, in oth er words, is a really good way to keep the us away from the numbing claws of themedia and mindless societal norms and closer to true productivity, and the more wonderful things inlife

Hello there.
I hear you're looking for a writer.
You see, I like the sound of you folks.It feels right to extend my warmest greetings to you.
I'll be available to start mid-December, full time - or part time if we're easing into it.
Here is what I wrote for a bio I submitted. I'm judging a public speaking competition for a juniorpublic speaking group this Friday. Enjoy!
Ashvina Naidu had a fine start with a degree in Law from the University of Wales,Aberystwyth - but her family tells her that far before that, she employed a insufferable know- it-all approach to life. After years of being a prize-winning debater in high school and several unflattering comparisons to Hermione Granger in college, her skills in critical thinking and verbal discourse found a cozier home in teaching Speech and Drama.
Ash's love for the dramatic was blown blissfully out of proportion during pursuit of an A-Level in English Literature by a formidable teacher whose brilliance convinced her that a lifetime of being an insufferable know-it-all was glorious, and actually - would you believe it? - possible.Over the years, Ash did a play and a musical in KLPAC - giving form to the valuable training in voice and speech that she gained from idolising Stephen Fry and watching My Fair Lady far too many times.
She has since worked with Blubricks, Never Ending Story and the Jumping Jellybeans - teaching in drama studios and several schools in the Klang Valley including ISKL, MKIS, Alice
Smith, Garden International School, the French School of KL, and Sri KDU. She has had plenty of fun organising or coaching students in preparation for poetry revues, and small productions of Where the Wild Things Are, A Midsummer Nights' Dream, and The Merchant of Venice.
Eventually, Ash started her own little company to run vocal training and art/drama workshops and to enable her to design the identity and branding of individuals and small companies.
She is currently travelling incessantly, training to be a designer, and acquainting herself with some very fine home-schooled individuals.
Have a lovely week.

Congratulations, sir, on taking on existence, and the metal beady thing that draws the drapes up and down in the living room downstairs.Both are shiny. Both have destiny.
I am sure you will invade Waterstones, eat pie, or both before the day is over.Or you could just take over the world.That would be rather nice.
Remember that if nothing else, your Aunty Ash loves pie.AND YOU.
Blustery November hugs to all,AMN
