This was followed by ''Disco 2000'' — a book about pre-millennial paranoia, ''Shenanigans'' — about Ireland after dark, and ''Fortune Hotel'' — a collection of twisted travel stories). Later, she went to Bangkok where she worked for Asian pop and travel websites and as a news and business editor for an English language newspaper for two years.
