Singapore Success Stories + Sneak Preview of Sir Fong's Book 3!

 Here's two pages of the upcoming Sir Fong's Adventures In Science Book 3: CELLS!

From 6 - 9th May at the Arts House, the National Book Development Council of Singapore (NBDCS) organised the Asian Festival of Children's Content.

Alex Chacko, publisher for Mr Midnight

I gave a short talk about Sir Fong as part of the "Singapore Success Stories" session on Friday.


It's very cool to be in the same session as Alex Chacko, talking about Mr Midnight's success. I sat there transfixed as Mr Chacko spoke with the gravity of someone who's really helped turn the tide. By his success, he inspires all of us to see new possibilities in publishing and writing in Singapore.

It is also very cool to share the space with Emily Lim and Shekinah Lim. Emily won praises and awards for her children's book "Prince Bear and Pauper Bear". Shekinah won MDA's first-time writer's initiative to publish her book "The Watchtower Warrior".
