Less than a year after the launch of her first 10 books, this John Robert Powers model, Harvard lecturer and tech wizard has published 10 more in a phenomenal burst of literary zeal. Seven of the new books deal with Ms. Wirasinha's specialised subjects, computers and Information Technology, but in a characteristic display of versatility, she has also produced another volume of poetry, a sequal to her first science fiction novel, and a guide to beauty and self development. In a further endorsement of the value of her work, the Educational Publications Advisory Board of the Ministry of Education has approved two of Ms. Wirasinha's books 'Computer Tutor' and 'Study Buddy' (published 2001) for use in schools in Sri Lanka.
