About “One-Day Literary Writing Lodge in Hong Kong Voices”:
On Saturday 15 December 2018, the Department of English at Hong Kong Baptist University, Cha: An Asian Literary Journal and PEN Hong Kong co-organised “One-Day Literary Writing Lodge in Hong Kong English”. Over 30 students in Hong Kong participated in the day-long event. The top four poems at the Lodge, selected by the instructors of the day (Tammy Ho Lai-Ming, Akin Jeje, Collier Nogues and Eddie Tay), are published in the Eleventh Anniversary Issue of Cha. Carrie Cheung’s “Yellow Flowers”, is one of the four selected poems, and it is about the hope and disappointment that people felt during the Umbrella Movement in 2014. 

Carrie Cheung is a secondary school student with a love for stories, poetry, and is an enthusiastic writer of both. Usually inspired by the minutiae of everyday life, she endeavours to share with others her own corner of the world, through doodles, snapshots and words about the little things in life.
