"Thanks for the add Deborah, and as for the "ironing post comment", I knew a psychologist could have a field-day with that! Oh well, now the whole world knows I'm an anal, control-freak!"

"Hi Elena, thanks for the friend request. I'm still finding my way around here - and trying to keep a balance so that it doesn't become something else to distract me from getting words down! Nice to hear from you."

Aisha Isabel Ashraf commented on the blog post 'Tell Us: Why Do You Write?'
"When I write time disappears and there aren't enough hours in the day. Some people drink to lose themselves like this. I write to find myself - to be more ME."

Profile Information

Who I am:
An energetic, optimistic, self-motivated mother of three, with funny toes, who has crossed geographical, cultural and religious borders and lived to tell the tale. Following the route life is taking me on and trying to get the most out of whatever it throws at me.
Likes sunshine, living close to water, assam tea & mens forearms. Hates mushrooms. Loves adventure and simple pleasures and is not, by any means, a morning person.
Connect with me online! My site, blog, or Twitter handle are:
Have a read of my blog: Expatlogue - Irreverent observations from an accidental expat in Canada
www.expatlogue.wordpress.com
Books I've written, anthologies I've contributed to, and any scripts or plays I've authored:
I have always enjoyed writing. I had an "interesting" upbringing due to my father's Bi-Polar episodes and my mothers depression, so most of my younger years were spent dodging blows and just staying alive. Now that I am settled and my children are leaving babyhood behind I have recently re-discovered the creative enjoyment writing affords me. I hope to develop it into something that continues to give me satisfaction but helps supplement the bank account at the same time.
Media outlets that I currently write for:
I have just begun writing pieces on expat life for www.expatarrivals.com
My writing is:
Nonfiction, Blog Posts
Services I offer to other writers:

Welcome Aisha.  I think your writing topics sound very interesting.  I like nonfiction writing too.  I am @mpf2011 on twitter.  This is a great site for writers. You'll like it a lot, I think.

Welcome to She Writes, and welcome to Canada from a true north strong and free Canuck! LOL I'll be keeping an eye on your blog; call it curiosity. I'm interested in how you perceive us, and if we live up to our reputation as a friendly but rather nationally apathetic nation. Very nice to meet you, by the way. I'm just your average, redneck Albertan girl.
