Issue 2 of the Hong Kong Writers Circle‘s literary magazine The Apostrophe on the theme of ‘MIND‘ is live on Substack! Congratulations to the published writers and artists, including Rebecca Dandridge-Walker, Julian Pantz and Kasra Shroff! Submissions for Issue 3 close on Halloween 2023. The theme is ‘Mistake’ but this is a trick! The only mistake you can make is not entering!

The first issue of The Apostrophe, the new quarterly literary magazine of the Hong Kong Writers Circle, is out on Substack! Each quarter, the five points of the bauhinia flower – Hong Kong’s emblem – are paralleled by five original pieces of writing or poetry by Hong Kong writers and matched by me and editor-in-chief Jan Lee to five original pieces of artwork by local and international artists. You can read it on Substack here or download it as a pdf here

Congratulations to writers Quincy Carroll, Murli MelwaniSam Powney, Sonia FL Leung and Blair Reeve and artists Charles TangKasra ShroffCassandra Lee and our incredible cover artist Jade Bryant on being published in our inaugural issue! If your art was not matched with a story this time, it still has a chance of being published in future issues.
