Off to Shanghai

I am beyond excited to be flying out today to Shanghai to read at the 14th International Short Story Conference. My reading is on Wednesday, when I'll be on the platform alongside the New Zealand writer, Frankie McMillan, and China's Asian Booker Prize-winner Su Tong. There is a strong Irish attendance scheduled for this conference, and a lot of fine writers from around the world, so it should be an exciting week.
After Shanghai, I have some travelling planned, and am hoping to possibly even meet up with my new Chinese publisher, so there will be photos and hopefully a few stories to follow in the weeks ahead.
