About me:
My name is Anli. I’m a Freelance Writer. I write different types of stuff, including: Science Fiction, Fantasy, Contemporary, Raw Edge, Poetry, Articles, Book Reviews, Fiction, Non-Fiction, Short Stories, Scientific and Archaeological Suppositions, and create my own inventions on paper, since my personal knowledge is vast. I own way over a hundred books, but give most books a poor rating, as they hardly live up to my expectations. Although some do and are a real joy to read; others are sickening and just shouldn't be read by anyone. I've been writing for over six years now, but I unconsciously wrote a lot when I was younger, too. I am currently working on my first Short Story Collection (since at the moment because I think novels are too much for me to cope with) entitled The Spirit, like I, Will Never Die. It’s basically a collection of sci-fi and fantasy stories and is going to be roughly 30,000 words long (about the starting point for a novel). I also study writing alongside my own projects. During the past two years I have been able to submit a wide range of writing pieces to competitions and magazines. Indeed, I would say that writing is my first love and there’s nothing I like better than to spend hours scribbling in my notebook.
I'm also currently studying the non-fiction section of the Writers Bureau Comprehensive Writing Course, and my assigned tutor is Sue Wilkes, a regular writer for BBC History.
Despite all of the natural talents I have been granted, life has not been easy for me. I have suffered from Manic Depression for many years and have had some serious set-backs in life. I was also abused for most of my life, but am slowly recovering from this. I am a Zen Buddhist with strong spiritual beliefs, and it is my faith and determination to see things through that has made me able to live my life. Indeed, I believe I have come through the worst and that my life is only going to get better from this point onwards. I've currently given in to taking meds for my own well-being, and am currently on 500mg of Depakote per day.
I am also a trainee Psychic Medium. I take weekly classes on Psychic Enhancement and Mediumship at the Elysium Psychic School set up my Craig and Jane Hamilton-Parker. I believe my life path greatly revolves around helping others, and I simply do not feel complete unless aiding in the healing of the universe in some way. I currently (at the last count [lol]) have five spirit guides who help me develop certain psychic, mediumistic and/or life skills. My main spiritual guide allows me to communicate and translate the messages I receive from the spirit world or plane and repeat these to me in an understandable way. I can also channel and give people information on past lives, events in their current lives that need dealing with and can communicate between those people and their spirit guide(s).
I’m Buddhist and have been for several years. I’ve been a vegetarian for almost thirteen years now and don’t drink, smoke or do drugs. I’m a pretty simple person all round. Buddhism has taught me to become more open and less judgmental (although I think we all struggle with the later at times) and has been my rock through the years. I meditate regularly and am also completely celibate. At the moment I’m not interested in dating, but if the right person was to come along and sweep my off my feet, I wouldn’t say no.
Who I'd like to meet: Intelligent people whom I can have a good conversation with, and someone who WON'T chat me up LOL;fellow writers; artists and philosophers; spiritual perople; geeks; aaaaaaaaaannnndd publishers and literary agents. I'm also looking to talk to transvestites, preferably English ones, about their experiences of Transvestitism and what it's like to be a transvestite. No women who dress up as men, please. My research is about men dressing up as women. I'm researching this for my new book, in which the secondary main character is a transvestite. Please be assured that I will not give out your contact or personal details, and my interest is for research purposes only.

Now a production company has moved into my office and things are starting to get exciting. My day job has evolved so much now everything comes under the umbrella. From the model agency, photo studio, commercial work, and now in the early stages of prepoduction for various features. Apart from my involvement with them, I still have to keep our own projects in development! OF COURSE, so whatever stage of your script you're at, visual treatment or styling, let me know, i can lend some advice, or even take part for you... and now I'm under the umbrella, anything's possible if we scratch backs ;)
