Resources Roundup – Nov’21

Posted by

I am thrilled to share that Singapore at Home: Life across Lines, the anthology I had contributed a story to, was launched at the Singapore Writers Festival on 9th November. You can watch a video of the launch here. Copies of the book are available globally through Amazon.com and also at kitaabstore.com and Kinokuniya Books.

This month I feature a slew of resources exclusively from the world of writing – tips, markets, themed submission opportunities.
