You will LOVE @EmilyMatchar’s In the Shadow of the Greenbrier! It’s truly a saga of what it means to be a foreigner in any land at any time — even in your own family. I’m so honored I got to bring it to life in the audiobook! Thank you @MollyyLoRe @livmacsmith @PRHAudio 🐧

Emily's nonfiction book HOMEWARD BOUND was the first book I ever sold as an agent. More than a decade letter, she sent me her novel!

Perhaps my favorite review yet. @AP, you had me at your title, "Humanity crystallized in ‘Letter to a Stranger’". Shout-outs to the work of @thejeremybjones @TrickyLaRouge and @EmilyMatchar embedded in the review--so well-deserved! 🥂
We got picked up by the wire! Overjoyed by this lovely review in the @AssociatedPress and grateful that the book is now known by millions more readers!

One of the fundamentally broken things about Hong Kong's current Covid situation is that it has neither the scale/labor force/compliance of the mainland to do a draconian lockdown, nor the democratic accountability to ensure balanced, reasonable public health measures.

The pioneers of Hong Kong's LGBT movement are largely in jail or targets of Beijing. LegCo is rife with bigotry, most notably in the form of Junius Ho.

Hong Kong appears to be pushing every Covid containment strategy but the one that would actually work: vaccinations. This misguided approach is causing more harm than good, writes @anjani_trivedi trib.al/cEL54Bq
