The first drama feature film I co-produced for Contro Vento with Mental Ideas, bipolar love story Transference, is being re-released and distributed worldwide by Cardinal XD in 2026. The film won the Jury Prize for Narrative Feature at the Socially Relevant Film Festival, New York. It was posted on YouTube in 2022 and has since been viewed over 30 million times.

Congratulations Mind HK on the 5th year anniversary of More Than A Label. It was a joy to be one of the ambassadors taking part in an exhibition of light, art and recovery stories to mark this mental milestone. I attended the opening of Refraction: A Journey of Our Mind with artist Charles Tang. Attendees were invited to take home a poem inspired by mental health recovery as a memento.

Four of my poems have just been published in the Spring 2026 edition of The Awakenings Review, a bi-annual American literary journal based in Chicago. The award-winning print journal is entirely devoted to publishing works by artists, writers and poets with lived experience of mental illness. You can order it online and read a free sample here! (My poems are not part of the sample.) Thanks to editor-in-chef Robert Lundin for sparking my World Bipolar Day!

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!

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!
