My third and final event of the Hong Kong International Literary Festival 2024 was the Women in Publishing Society‘s launch of anthology Imprint 22. I had an absolute blast reading my humorous short story The Snide Sniper to a rather well lubricated and very appreciative crowd at the Foreign Correspondents Club!

I am honoured to have had three very different pieces published in this year’s beautifully illustrated and meticulously edited anthology – The Snide Sniper, poem Barking Mad (along with a sketch of my beloved pooch Hobo) and a personal essay on how my neurodiversity (ADHD) can turbocharge my creativity but make me feel like a typo. You can purchase the book from the Lion Rock Press, Bookazine, Vibe and the FCC!

Congratulations to editor Carol Dyer, Polly, Gillian, Leslie, Rinkoo and all the WiPS team. Also to Joanna and Ursula for coming out to support what was an epic prelude to International Women’s Day!

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 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!
