Went to a Chinese Talk ytd at ACS (Barker Road). It was actually a follow up of the "You Jing" workshop held sometime ago. It was quite an enriching and insightful trip though. Most Chinese writers from Singapore attended the talk and some even shared their experiences on writing. There was also a song writer who came up to share too and a fisherman who shared about the dolphins and whales from the sea. I loved that one best. That guy actually had the experience of being around dolphins and whales which is quite amazing, don' t you think? Most of the other writers shared about plants mostly.
One shared about her experience with "tan hua" and another shared his experience with a caterpillar turning into a butterfly on his plant. Quite amazing eh?
The talk ended with a Q n A session where some students from other schools asked some very interesting questions such as how to make more use of plants and nature in our writing. All in all, I would say this talk will be very helpful in my writing in the future.
