Projects, writing, and better moves.

Hi, I’m Micah Choong. This is where I share my projects, writing, chess ideas, and learning reflections. I’m building this as a home for the things I’m working on, thinking about, and slowly improving.

Now

I’m working on 64 Blunders.

It’s my main project for publishing chess books and learning material.

Book project

How to Master Chess

A chess book I’m developing under 64 Blunders.

Reminder to self

Good moves are useful. Bad moves are also suspiciously educational.

About

A simple home for what I’m building and learning.

I use this website to collect my projects, writing, chess-related work, and learning reflections. Over time, I want it to become a useful portfolio of my creative and learning journey.

Chess

I explore chess through practice, reflection, and the lessons that come from both good moves and blunders.

Writing

I write learning reflections, project notes, and ideas that help me understand what I’m working on.

📚

Books

I’m working on chess book projects through 64 Blunders, starting with How to Master Chess.

Main Project

64 Blunders

64 Blunders is my main project. It is where I plan to publish chess books, learning materials, and updates about the book projects I’m working on.

How to Master Chess

A 64 Blunders book project

In progress

My current book project is How to Master Chess.

I’m using 64 Blunders as the standalone home for my chess books and related learning materials. From time to time, I may also work with other contributors who provide materials or manuscripts for future books.

A learning reflection on mistakes, improvement, and why bad moves are not always wasted moves.
