Publishing in January 2022, EAST SIDE VOICES is a first-of-its-kind essay anthology that showcases the brightest East and Southeast Asian voices in Britain today.

In this honest panel discussion, ESEA authors and publishing industry professionals will discuss the challenges, realities, and strategies around getting published as an ESEA writer. Does the ‘burden of representation’ mean that we make certain creative choices in the writing we produce? How do we balance artistic originality with ‘sellability’? Do we feel restricted as ESEA writers in terms of what we can write (and publish) in the future? We often talk about ‘gatekeepers’ in the publishing industry: this panel will feature the voices of ESEA individuals on both sides of that gate (writers, as well as editors and agents) for a unique cross-section of insight.

A wellness session with a mindful approach to yoga, breathwork and meditation. This session is an invitation to be curious about your wellbeing. How often do you listen to your mind, body, soul as a whole? How often do you listen to yourself with loving care and attention?

It is a virtual tour on Zoom.
