Imprint 24 Lit Fest Launch 2026!

on February 13, 2026March 14, 2026 by RTHK's Miss Adventure 香港電台冒險小姐

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!!!

Coming of Age Lit Fest launch at Asia Society!

on February 13, 2026March 17, 2026 by RTHK's Miss Adventure 香港電台冒險小姐

In an exciting break with tradition (usually we are at the Fringe), the Hong Kong Writers Circle‘s Hong Kong International Literary Festival launch of its 21st anthology Coming of Age, edited by dream team Jay Oatway and Julian Lyden, will be held at the Asia Society Sat 7 March from 8-9.30pm. My contribution is like my bum curtains: Ageless. The Circle‘s last two lit fest launches of Score and Lost in Transition sold out so hurry, hurry to grab your tix! I’ll be among the readers. Afterparty TBA (but there will be one…)

Imprint 23 HK Lit Fest Launch

on February 15, 2025October 11, 2025 by RTHK's Miss Adventure 香港電台冒險小姐

Tickets are now on sale for the Women in Publishing Society‘s launch of their annual anthology, Imprint 23, at the Hong Kong Literary Festival 2025! Two of my short stories (a humorous piece and an essay on mental health) have slithered their way into this year’s anthology and I’m delighted to be invited to read (the humorous piece) at the event. Last year I read The Snide Sniper and the year before that it was Bake Fail. Fingers crossed this year’s attendees are just as appreciative. And by appreciative I mean inebriated.

Join me and the women with WiPS for a literary hotpot celebrating women’s diverse voices at the FCC 5 March from 7pm!

HKILF 2025: The Score!

on February 12, 2025June 16, 2025 by RTHK's Miss Adventure 香港電台冒險小姐

Taking part in the HK Lit Fest launches of the Hong Kong Writers Circle‘s and Women in Publishing Society‘s anthologies is always a hit of dopamine. In 2025, two of my flashiest flash fiction pieces (aptly titled ‘Two Shit Shorts’) will be flushed in HKWC anthology Score. The event will be held at the Jockey Club Theatre at the Hong Kong Fringe on 2 March at 6pm – and as it’s a celebration of 20 years of the Circle AND a leaving party for some of us, come to party!

The Women in Publishing Society will be launching their anthology Imprint 23 at the FCC from 7-10pm on Weds 5th March. This is always a blast. I’ll be reading at both events. Wheeeeee!
