The Art of Being a Bilingual Writer
I've been asked several times to share my experience as a bilingual content creator.
In this article you'll be able to learn:
- Why I choose to write in English and Chinese
- Why should you write in English, even it’s not your native language?
- How to start writing in two languages?
- How to find audiences as a bilingual writer?

That's a wonderful post!
Do you write the same things that you do in English to Chinese or are there some things you write in one language but not in the other? I speak both English and Spanish and I am considering how to address this issue, partly cuz not a lot of people that speak Spanish speak English, even if it is the lingua franca.
I wrote different stuff because my target audiences are so different.
I normally curate content from the western world for my Chinese audiences and summarise my learnings.
I share my cultural observation and eastern philosophy for my English audiences to meet their curiosity and reveal a real Asia that they don't usually see in traditional mainstream media.
It would be lovely to see more bilingual writers in our world haha!
