Meeting Shirley and Phui Nam

It was such a pleasure to meet Shirley on last Thursday. This was my first meeting with an English author. When I was young, I did meet with some Chinese authors before. I was happy that I had this honour to listen to Shirley's talk. When I first reached the hall before the meeting started, I bought her book Among the White Moonfaces from the counter. I did not have time to read the book yet, I will do so during my long break. When Shirley talked about her latest novel in the meeting, I felt that a writer will still write in a way that will ensure the sale of his or her book.
Yesterday, Mr Wong Phui Nam came to our class for an afternoon talk. I personally appreciate him because he is such a knowledgeable man. He is very humble and I could see that he was a bit nervous to talk in front of us. But when he was deep into his talk about his feels and thoughts, he was very natural and there was a light on his face. I like his sensibility. I am hoping to attend his creative writing workshop and also the play Anike.
