This week on The Writer’s Gauntlet with Sadie Kaye, my opponent is the effortlessly erudite and witty Mat Ricardo – showman, best dressed juggler, and America’s Got Talent loser who wrote a book for kids about how to be criminals (The Magic in You, published by Faber!)

He’s also been my guest on RTHK Radio 3 in my Mental Ideas Podcast and doc As Bad As It Gets and is an ambassador for Mental Ideas!

I dropped by RTHK Radio 3 for a bipolar expresso (not to be confused with an espresso martini, which I also asked for) with rockstar producer Rachel Liu this World Bipolar Day! Thanks RTHK for making this happen at short notice and making me feel so welcome!

If any of this resonates with you, please join Bipolar Hong Kong, the SAR’s bipolar support group. Wishing all bipolar bears a World Bipolar Day that is juuuuuuuust right!

Join me and the women with WiPS for another fizz-fuelled fiesta celebrating women’s voices! The Women in Publishing Society‘s Hong Kong International Literary Festival 2026 launch of Imprint 24 takes place at the FCC 4 March from 7-10pm! Tickets include two drinks, a delicious spread of complimentary canapés, free copies of the anthology, readings, speeches and performances, amid the legendary hospitality of the FCC!

My contributions to this year’s anthology are a couple of musings and a delulu doodle. While my pieces strike a slightly more reflective note than usual, I’ll be performing a humorous piece from an upcoming episode of Sharp Pains at the event by kind invitation of editor Carol Dyer, In Bed with Sadie. Don’t miss it!!!

Aiya! My return to RTHK Radio 3 did not go as planned. I arrived at the studio early and zoned out when I realised hang on, aren’t I supposed to be on the air by now? It turned out Noz was in the studio, too. Just not the one I was in. She was in the one on the other side of town. So we did the interview on the phone but I couldn’t upload my poem without cutting her off (so RTHK listeners were spared that annual ‘treat’. At least until World Bipolar Day.😆) 

Always a slice of sunshine chatting to Noz in any sticky situation – on the air or off it! Hope your World Mental Health Day was as full of memorable mishaps and mayhem as mine! And it was nice being back in the studio, even if it was the wrong studio!

I’m excited to share the ident for one of my two new podcasts! Thanks to artist Victoria Mae Martin, a creative dynamo so committed to her craft and our collaborations that she nearly lost a digit this week! But is it more comedy, more terror, or just more terrible comedy? No spoilers – you’ll have to dive in!

Comedy of Terrors is also the working title of a collection of my short stories and flash!

Couldn’t decide on a colour scheme so did 5 – that’s ADHD!

I discovered I’d been nominated for a GHP Mental Health Award a few weeks ago for my contribution via Mental Ideas and Bipolar Hong Kong. Well, apparently I’ve won ‘Most Dedicated Mental Health Advocate 2025’ (Hong Kong)! 😂 🙏🏼 

Thanks to everyone who’s given me a platform to rant and muse about mental health, especially Mind HK and RTHK. It’s a lovely way to celebrate the 10th birthday of Bipolar Hong Kong! 🇭🇰 🩷

Find me in the Reflection Room in this World Mental Health Day episode of Brunch with Noreen on RTHK Radio 3 where Noz and I are chatting Bipolar Hong Kong and I share a poem dedicated to all the companies all over the world that care about mental health on World Mental Health Day and not quite so much the other 364 days of the year…

The poem was one of a bunch I read at Mind HK‘s Poetry, Stories and Mental Health event at the 2024 Hong Kong Lit Fest in March. Please support mental health in the workplace every day! 💜

Issue 5 of The Apostrophe is a tasty morsel of poetry, fiction and art! It’s always exciting to connect with new artists as art editor, especially when they are as quirky and talented as Victoria Mae Martyn and Andreas Vonbuddenbrock! Victoria’s kooky cover art is called ‘Corporate Coffee’ 😆 and Andreas’ stunning sketch of HK is called ‘Infinity’. Thanks to editors Jan Lee and Sam Powney, all the writers, poets and artists who made this our most striking edition yet!
