The Hong Kong Writers Circle‘s launch of Lost in Transition at the Hong Kong Lit Fest has sold out a week after Poetry, Stories and Mental Health! This means I only have one lit fest event left where you can still grab a ticket! Please act fast to book for the Women in Publishing Society‘s launch of Imprint 22 at the FCC on 7 March! This one’ll cost you, but includes free wine or bubbles, a delicious buffet, two copies of the anthology per guest and a full evening’s entertainment at the FCC from 7-10pm, where I will be among the readers. Hope to see you there!

The Hong Kong Writers Circle‘s 19th anthology, Lost in Transition, will launch at the 2024 Hong Kong International Literary Festival March 6! The event will be held 7.30pm – 8.45pm in the Jockey Club Studio at the Hong Kong Fringe Club. This year’s anthology contains 30 short stories and poems inspired by Hong Kong’s underground life-support system – the MTR! (I also set my own theme of ‘Yakult’.) Tickets are FREE but you must book now as there are very few left!

As well as contributing, I assisted Stewart McKay to edit this anthology, which is the thickest yet! (That’s thick in terms of width, not talent.) It contains many weird and wonderful poems and stories by local writers so please support and if you write, join us! HUGE thanks to my good pal Philippe Joly for helping design the cover and my nephew Kaz for taking the cover shot!

So stand back from the platform door and please don’t find yourself lost in transition…

The Women in Publishing Society‘s 2023-2024 anthology Imprint 22 is launching at the FCC as part of the 2024 Hong Kong International Literary Festival 7 March! Last year, I had the joy of performing Bake Fail at the HKILF 2023 launch of Imprint 21. This year, I’ve also been invited to read, although I haven’t yet decided what. Join me and the women with WiPS from 7-10pm at the FCC for another evening of fun and frivolity celebrating women’s voices!
