In January, I was made chair of the Hong Kong Writers Circle, of which I'm very proud.

​I appeared with the HKWC to present the lastest HKWC anthology Future Perfect. I also recorded the readings (see the Zoom H4n Pro on the mic stand), which will be released soon.

Finally, I completed another video essay for primary school children learning English. This is the first one I've edited using Davinci Resolve, which is a wonderful program to use.

"Bucking the trend of embarrassing self-promotion that makes up 98% of today’s arts media content, mention of Jame’s books is followed by useful, in-depth discussion and generous advice about crime writing, international publishing, and how to stick to your guns as a contemporary author."

An interview with another HKWC member, Pat Kozyra, and an essay from me reflecting on eight parenting books.

Also, some very kind praise for the podcast from HKWC Chair Peter Humphreys and an interview with my former interviewee Jame Dibiasio. Thanks guys!
