Happy, Happy Birthday to my Darling, soon-to-be-mum Daughter!
I’m so proud of everything you are and everything you do – always have been.
You grow more beautiful every hour and I know, you’ll teach your son to be a gentle, strong and loving man.
So many wonderful years ahead of you, Sweetie.

Enjoy your visit – I have to admit, I agree, WA is the place to be!
This coming weekend, I will be off to Western Australia for an AWESOME time, thanks to an invitation from Writing WA.
A few months back, National Arts Council contacted me to say that Writing WA had requested for me to attend their AWESOME International Arts Festival for Bright Young Things as their Singapore guest author. Was I interested?
“Awesome!”I cried and immediately burst out into the Lego Movie Song. Okay, I didn’t sing that out loud but the song is seriously stuck in my head.
I’m looking forward to my week of giving book talks and readings at the AWESOME Festival, recognised as one of the top 25 events in the world for young people.
I also hope that the blue skies and fresh air will spark some good writing moments in this hazy writing year, where community commitments have taken priority.

He’s also giving away one bilingual starter set in any language Bab’l Books has available. Enter at the end of this post.
Marianne Knowles: How did Bab’l Books get started?
Jair Hernandez: Bab’l Books came out of my own background. I grew up in Houston, but I was born in Mexico. Growing up, there was a strong desire to keep our language in our family. We…
