Happy Zhongyuanjie, or Hungry Ghost Festival, the culmination of #GhostMonth, possibly the scariest day in the Chinese calendar (apart from Gaokao results day).

I have a lovely little project to announce for you. 📢📢📢 1/

I'm delighted to hear that people are enjoying the new Mystic Nine series so much (loved the 2016 one). Did you know that you can read about these larger-than-life characters in English in Nanpai Sanshu's novella, Records of Xiangxi 湘西往事 which I selected for Sinophagia? 1/ #ghostmonth #chinese #sff
