The VR Dancer on VYP!
My podcast with Virtual Reality Dancer Eugenia Kim has just dropped on VYP! And by “just” I mean recently. And by “recently” I mean a few weeks ago. And by “weeks” I mean months. And by “months” I mean at some point last year. Enjoy!

Bake Failing at the HK Lit Fest!
Thank you to editor Carol Dyer and the Women in Publishing Society for inviting me to read Bake Fail at the 2023 Hong Kong International Literary Festival launch of Imprint 21! It was the first time I had performed it in front of a live audience and I had a blast!
Bake Fail was published as A Piece of Cake by the South China Morning Post in 2022, which meant it couldn’t be included in the anthology, but you will find two of my other humorous short stories tucked inside; Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow from Sharp Pains, which broadcasted on RTHK, and a restaurant review by my poodle, Mojo, which I helpfully translated.
Imprint 21 is available from bookstores including Bookazine, Lion Rock Press and Vibe. You can also pick up a copy from the FCC, where the event was held. Congrats to the Women with WiPS for putting on a cracking event and to the HKILF for curating such a literary feast!
