Life is an adventure with many surprises. In 2019, a Chinese TV cultural program producer Ms. Luo emailed me to invite me be her next program consultant. She wanted to bring her team to Canada to make a series of films about poets in Canada. Then pandemic happened, so everything’s canceled. Last year I took a free film making course and glad to learn something useful and worked with team to make a short film. Last month, a fine Chinese writer ZhouJun found me and asked me to translate her poetry collection including an award-winning poetic drama from Chinese into English… I now have translated one third. It is good. So glad that everything comes out well together!
Showcase of poems and paintings with my translations for Asian Heritage Month 2022
So glad to translate poems by fine poets: Luofu and Yan Li. Also joined an online event to read the poems.
Celebrating #AsianHeritageMonth
To celebrate National Poetry Month & Asian Heritage Month, Anna Yin wrote 24 haiku that were inspired by Neville G. Poy & Vivienne Poy’s beautiful photography book: Precious Moments. Please check the video to find more about Poys’ wonderful book! Some of them will be used at Anna Yin’s school and community haiku workshop programs. Thanks Dr. Vivienne’s permission!
