About Me
- Name: Eric Forbes
- Location: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
I am a senior book and magazine editor who lives in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I love books and the freedom to read whatever makes me happy: both fiction and nonfiction. I have always been obsessed with the relationship between literature and life and its role in society. As an editor, I have edited many books, but never get tired of the grand adventure of reading. We must never underestimate the redeeming power of fiction in our lives. The idea that there is something out there that is far, far bigger than our lives sustains some of our lives. I am the co-editor of URBAN ODYSSEYS: KL STORIES.

Hi Mr Eric
I was googling MPH over the net and came across your website. I called MPH Publishing house earlier only to be told that the PIC would speak to me later. Just a quick one, I'm representing a client who's in the midst of completing an English poetry book (a collection of 32 years) and we are very interested in using MPH as our printer, publisher and distributor. I have lots of queries, would I be able to speak to you on this matter? I can be reached at 012 353 1125. Thank you.
