NüVoices Podcast #9: Long-Form Magazine Writing With The New Yorker’s Jiayang Fan

Following a heady and successful of NüVoices’ first North American chapter, they reunite at the SupChina offices in Brooklyn and interview one of their idols: , staff writer and de facto China correspondent at The New Yorker magazine.

For recommendations and self-care, Alice recommends UC Berkeley’s (which also produces this excellent ), Joanna recommends “How to Rock Your Broadcast Appearance” by Sophia Yan, published on , and Jiayang recommends that women writers — and all writers — keep a nightly journal, or that we spend 15 minutes on the voice audio app on our phones “talking to ourselves.” Jiayang also recommends the Netflix show Kim’s Convenience.
