Each year, WiPS invites its members to submit examples of their best work for publication in our annual anthology, IMPRINT. This year, dozens of talented writers, poets and editors took part. Most are based in Hong Kong; while many are now scattered throughout Asia, Europe, America and Australia.

Drawing on a smorgasbord of specialities and perspectives, the diverse group cooks up a rich and satisfying anthology every time.

Keep IMPRINT handy so you can easily dip into it. You'll find new and stimulating fiction, articles, memoirs, poetry, travelogues and even helpful marketing tips and other business-related topics.

The Members' Directory in the back of IMPRINT serves as a valuable tool for those looking to recruit talent or simply to network. Here you will find contact details and profiles for all the contributing authors, as well as for every other member of Women in Publishing.

Enjoy - and see you next year!.
