On March 29th, 2014, at Chatham Square Library, we invited Nina Dai Tang, President of Oversea Window Author's Association, to give a lecture and have a forum discussion with our Chapter members and the public library users.
Ms. Tang talked about her personal experience as a writer and her own understanding/practice of internet literature. She is the founder of the Oversea Window Author's Association, with a group of active writers publishing all types of literature on its website, electronic magazine, and also in traditional book format. She has also been organizing community parents/children engagement events and Chinese educational charity.
The event was well attended. Both CALA NE Chapter members and the library users were very interested in Ms. Tang and her writings. Ms. Tang signed some books for NYPL and public users. Possible future library events with Oversea Window Author's Association were under discussion.
Thanks Ms. Wu and Ms. Opinante from Chatham Square Library and Mr. Chang, our Chapter Treasurer, for their great effort to coordinate the event location and room settings.
After the event, Ms. Tang has written a blog article and posted her lecture slides on Oversea Window's Website, where the author's association's members had a further discussion around the lecture topics.
