Support The Shanghai Literary Review Against Duke Kunshan University

Posted: September 30th, 2025 | No Comments »

I know a lot of you have been published by The Shanghai Literary Review in the past – i know i have. They helped many find a voice, find an audience, move on to better and bigger things.

Well, now TSLR NEEDS YOU!! They’re being broken financially and morally by Duke Kunshan University, whose commitments and promises they are not only breaking but refuse to even communicate. The result of this could be that TSLR goes to the wall and a new generation of Shanghai writers have one less significant outlet through which to get their voices heard.

They helped us – the Shanghai and wider writing community – now it’s time to return the favour and help them pressure Duke Kunshan to honour their commitments – get on insta, FB, and especially Linked In, and let Duke Kunshan know what you think of their shabby behaviour and that you support TSLR and Shanghai writing…
