Tell us a little bit about yourself

Predominantly a writer-blogger, increasingly concerned about -- & writing on such -- the suppression of opinion in Turkey through all forms of media. While my main income is derived from teaching, I hope to move out of this field and become financially self-reliant as a freelance journalist.
