À propos de l?auteur

In the Spotlight This month we feature one of WordPlay's first members, Migel Jayasinghe. Now retired, Migel, who has lived and worked in Asia, Africa and Europe, is a very active author and freelance journalist. Having established a vocational assessment and rehabilitation facility whilst Senior Occupational Psychologist with the Royal British Legion Industries between 1996 and 2001, (a groundbreaking facility helping ex-services disabled men and women back into appropriate further education, training and civilian employment), Migel moved to Spain in late 2005. Although devoting most of his time to creative writing, Migel's current life mostly concentrates on the area of life coaching, having gained a distinction in this regimen from the Life Coaching Academy (UK) in 2002. Indeed his credentials are such that he presented and ran a workshop at the First Russian International Life coaching Conference held at St Petersburg in November 2002. He used an eclectic range of counselling and coaching methods to help clients achieve goals they had hitherto thought beyond their reach. A prolific intellectual writer, his published works include Counselling in Careers Guidance (2001) Open University Press, Buckingham, UK, A Miscellany: Essays, stories, poems and a play (2008) Outskirts Press, Denver CO, USA and, Renditions, 30 Topical Essays (2009) Outskirts Press, Denver CO, USA.
