Today we chat with the absolute icon that is THE Emma Pei Yin! @emmapeiyin We can't wait for you to listen to our chat about writing with generational trauma, prejudice in publishing and what the voices of the past tell us if we care to listen.
But first, here's more about Emma: Emma Pei Yin is an Australian Chinese writer and editor. She is the author of When Sleeping Women Wake, a historical novel set during the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong, exploring resilience, complicity and the cost of survival. The book has been published globally.
She is also the founder of yinfluence editorial @_yinfluence_., an agency that works with PoC, queer and neurodivergent writers, connecting them with editors and mentors who understand the stakes of telling stories from the margins. She has been featured in The Canberra Times, Harper’s Bazaar, Cosmopolitan, Mekong Review and The Hong Kong Review.
Emma is working on her second novel with her extremely barky dachshund, Lady, by her side.
