Tell us a little about your story in The Apex Book of World SF 4.
“Setting Up Home” is a very short story -- so short that I can't really say what it's about without spoilers. Let's just say all is not what it seems.
Why do you feel it is important to read stories from around the globe?
There's a whole exciting world out there, why on earth would you want to limit yourself only to your tiny corner of it?
If you could tell people to read one author from your home country, who would it be and why?
Rather than an author, I'm going to suggest that anyone interested should look up the Singaporean government's recent treatment of 16-year-old blogger Amos Yee - the whole episode tells you a lot about the country, and is quite as dystopian as any fiction I've come across. Bonus points for reading this alongside Ursula K. Le Guin's "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas."
