Hello! I’m John Weeks, developing innovative fundraising and communication strategies in Southeast Asia.

I particularly relish the challenge of growing nonprofit infrastructure. I’ve founded Our Books, Our Books Illustration and Design, House32 Web Design, and assisted in getting Open Development Cambodia and the ICT4 Cambodia Development Network off the ground.

I serve on the boards of Open Development Cambodia, Our Books, Nou Hach Literary Journal, and arts ‘think tank’ Sang Salapak.

I frequently teach at varied tech events, and enjoy sharing my interests via blogging, cartooning and varied writing. My opinions on art, culture, and technology are cited in publications ranging from Time and USA Today to Punk Planet.

Please feel free to get in touch.

Happy Marry Valentines Day

Stumbled out to do some Sunday errands this morning, only to find a big store display. (Below.)
If there is any holiday that Cambodia does with even more enthusiasm than the West?
It’s Valentine’s Day.

All I could think was ‘wait, wait, it’s January!’ We’re still recovering from Christmas.  V-day last year seems like it was just a few months ago. http://www.quickdraw.me/865

Last year there was a mob scene outside Phnom Penh’s only chocolate shop, and a rose vendor on every corner.
Cambodia taught me to appreciate romance as a relevant and useful genre. But what if you’re not in the mood?
