**Liminal & Satellites present the Slow Currents writing workshop.**

An international Asian diaspora workshop of eight early-career writers, the workshop brings together talented writers from Australia and Aotearoa: Bryant Apolonio, Saraid de Silva, Elizabeth Flux, Hasib Hourani, Nathan Joe, Rose Lu, Cher Tan and Chris Tse.

Formed through slow and intentional dialogue between Leah Jing McIntosh (Editor, Liminal) and Rosabel Tan (Director, Satellites), the two organisations have partnered with the Asian American Writers Workshop for their pilot year.

The 2022 workshop brought together these writers into dialogue with George Abraham, Piyali Bhattacharya, Alice Sparkly Kat, Hua Hsu, Viet Thanh Nguyen and Charles Yu; in 2023, the workshop travelled to Washington DC at the invitation of the Smithsonian’s Asian American Literature Festival. In 2024, the workshop will be travelling to Wellington for their third residency.
