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!!!

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…)

Magnolia Pictures is streaming West of Thunder on their curated Magnolia Selects list of films on Amazon Prime (North America) until 29 June! The 2012 western, in which I play Wanda, won Best Film (Human Rights) and Best Film (Peace) from the Political Film Society, USA. The film was selected by Lionsgate and Tribeca for the Tribeca Shortlist and streamed on Hulu in 2019. Thanks for the throwback memories, Dan!

My review of Nifraz Rifaz‘s soaring debut novel Paper Plane just crash landed in The Hooghly Review – on Christmas Eve no less! Thanks Santa/ editor Ankit Raj Ojha for this lovely little festive hit of dopamine! The book launched in Sri Lanka Nov 29. I was invited to give an advanced comment for the launch, which mutated into my first EVER book review! I may have slightly overdone the plane metaphors……

I’ll be back in The Hooghly Review 15 Feb 2026 with my latest humour column, Flush Fiction. Yep – if Nifraz’s novel doesn’t give you turbulence, my column certainly will!

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!
