Sedang berjalan-jalan di Metro Plaza Senayan bersama Wenni dan Tiyas. Pernyataan bodoh: Saya : “Bo, gue nggak ngerti deh ama Superman baru. Kenapa ya ketika dia jadi Clark Kent itu rambutnya gonjes, tapi kalo jadi Superman teh cepak. Ga berantakan lagi kalo terbang. Edan yah!” Tanggapan tolol pertama: Tiyas : “Mungkin pake hairspray.” Tanggapan tolol kedua: Wenni : “Ih kalo gue mah gak mikirin rambutnya. Yang gue gak ngerti... Superman itu kenapa matanya pake infra red? Hari gini jamannya udah bluetooth gitu loohh...” —————- Percakapan di atas hanya salah satu bagian dari kumpulan blog Miund (ya, ini nama orang), seorang perempuan twenstysomething di Jakarta. Masih banyak lagi berbagai bahasan ringan, lucu, dan tajam tentang kehidupan sehari-hari dalam buku ini. Disajikan dengan idealis tanpa menggurui. Kadang tampak ‘termehe-mehe’, naif, bingung dengan langkah yang diambil, yang akhirnya membuat tulisan pekerja kreatif ini jadi lucu, dalam, sekaligus...gokil! "...kombinasi menghibur antara humor, intelektualitas, dan kecerdasan." — Dewi Lestari "...buku ini penting 'gila' buat gaul, supaya kita gak 'basi' kalo lagi nongkrong..." — VJ Daniel "...sungguh buku yang benar-benar penting!" — Arie Dagienk

Miund a.k.a Asmara Letizia Wreksono started to write when she was very little. Her first work was displayed on her mother's white living room wall, where she wrote her full name with blue and pink crayons. She luckily graduated from Bandung Institute of Technology where she insanely took Interior Design as a major, amazingly with a diploma in hand. Starting off her career as a copywriter, this girl has come a long way. She fell in love with the blogging world, the only place where she could say ANYTHING about life in general -usually in very humorous ways. Most of her writings are in Indonesian, but since she speaks English so fluently (mainly when feeling romantic, drunk or angry), she keeps an English blog as well at http://www.miund.wordpress.com GOKIL! - Sebuah Kompilasi Kedodolan (2007)is the first book of her own, consisting of the best bits from her Indonesian blog and is categorized as 'humor' or 'fiction'in most bookstores (never ask her why, because she is still curious about this too). She was also credited as one of the selected poets in a poetry anthology titled Grafitti Gratitude (2001), consisting of the best poetries from the Indonesian cyber-poets mailing list (was http://cybersastra.net). Again, she didn't know why she was selected because she never thought of herself as a poet. She just loves to write. Miund is now working as a Creative Producer for a local television talkshow, and have been involved in various international television shows for the past three years. She also wrote an award-winning comedy series in 2001. Although she loves to write, she hates using pens to do so. "I write in my computer. I only use pen and pencils to draw or doodle," she once said with a serious look on her face. She is now residing in Jakarta, Indonesia, working on her second (or is it third?) book with two other authors.
