Nicholas Y.B. Wong's poem "Getting Married with Gertrude Stein" won first prize in the Sentinel Literary Quarterly Poetry Competition. His other poem "Teaching English Poetry in Hong Kong" was selected as a runner-up in the same contest. The judge was British poet Geoff Stevens who chose his poem "for its clever admix of literary history and its surreal conjecture of a marriage born within an active imagination. It is well-written and daringly walks that balancing line of poetry and prose without failing." The two poems will come out in the Sentinel Champions Series around May 2011.
Nicholas Y.B. Wong's was Asia Writes's featured poet in June. His poem "I am Mark Joseph" has been nominated for Best of the Net 2010.
