Singapore’s literary movement had a strong grassroots beginning, largely organised by writers themselves, so it makes sense that Singapore’s writers are as diverse as its population.
Some of the writers in this list came from that movement, and some took other avenues to develop their craft, but all of them have created work worth reading.
There’s no better time than a new year to dedicate yourself to supporting our local writers.
