Winnie Khaw, Creative Writing, '12, had her entire novella, “A Summit of Tumultuous Winds,” published in the April 20, 2011, edition of the Kunlun Journal. The story, set in a quasi-historical fantastical China, contains an ensemble cast of heroes and anti-heroes who engage in adventures as the world they know disintegrates to make way for the new order. Winnie says that beside Lien, her other favorite character is Wu Que, who comes from a poor family, is sold to become a palace eunuch, and unwittingly gains the love of the emperor’s favorite concubine. See the journal to read the entire story! |

Winnie Khaw, Creative Writing, '12, had “The Paper Dragon Breathes Fire,” a plot thread from her novella, featured in a Kungfu Action Theatre podcast. The chapter centers on a prescient demi-god who, as the apparent son of the emperor, could have changed the fate of the entire empire--but he chose instead to support the dreams of an idealist rebel and those affected by the his human failings. The reader (Ty) does a great job! Take a listen. There is a nice write-up about Winnie, too. |
