Had a chance on Tuesday (26/2) to speak to some fifty brilliant postgraduate students doing their Master of Teaching at the Education University of Hong Kong. I shared with them on nurturing the high-ability students and took the chance, of course, to promote language arts with BALLOONS Lit. Journal. They were all hungry for a copy at the end of the lesson and all the copies I brought were gone in seconds!

My Scotland tour is more than an educational trip, I took the opportunity to introduce to more people about BLJ. I only brought with me three copies of BLJ Issue 7 but I am glad to have handed them to three of the great people I met (from left to right): Scottish singer Kirsty Law, school teacher Tommy Donnelly (who impressed me so much being involved in deaf education), and my lovely cheerful tour guide Emma McKenna. It is always a blessing to meet someone who enjoys poetry and artwork! Happy reading ^o^
