Sing Lit Station is a registered charity and Institution of Public Character (IPC). Our vision is to be a platform where readers and writers can meet.
Our core mission is to serve the local literary community of writers and readers, through:
creating a space for writers to grow their artistic and professional lives;
inviting readers to explore our literary culture;
working with many partners to build inclusive and dynamic communities.
Sing Lit Station’s flagship programmes include our workshop-for-schools programme Book A Writer, our community challenge / writing forum SingPoWriMo, our annual Manuscript Bootcamp, our online archive poetry.sg and our publishing arm AFTERIMAGE.
As a physical space, Sing Lit Station serves as a writer’s centre – an abode for literary creation. We extend support via the Jalan Besar Fellowship programme and host masterclasses from visiting writers to give literary workers a space to create and showcase themselves. We also pioneer peer-led workshop groups as a model for literary growth, hosting monthly peer-run writing groups consisting of practicing and aspiring writers, migrant workers, queer folk and more, and more facilitated communities such as Writing The City. We also rent out office and events space, with discounts for creatives; please contact us to learn about our rates.
As an organisation, we are supported by the National Arts Council under the Major Company Scheme for the period from 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2025. We receive further financial support from the Cultural Matching Fund, the Arts Fund, the Speak Good English Movement, The Majurity Trust, and the Buy SingLit campaign for our programmes, but we are sustained also by donations from a community of generous arts patrons. Do consider supporting us today.
Sing Lit Station was co-founded by Joshua Ip, Daryl Qilin Yam and Jon Gresham and began operations in Jul 2016. Our present achievements are built on the past contributions of countless full-timers, part-timers, volunteers and interns past and present.

Synopsis:
Love, Echoing On is a mother-son compilation of works, featuring Sanjay C Kuttan’s odes to his wife, and Rosaly Puthucheary’s revisitation of “Dance On His Doorstep”, her book-length sequence of cantos first published more than 30 years ago.
Love, Echoing On is a poetic dialogue between Rosaly Puthucheary and Sanjay C Kuttan, mother and son. Across two distinct but intertwined voices, the collection explores how love endures, transforms, and reverberates across generations. Through echo and response, each poem becomes both offering and reflection, an act of listening as much as speaking. What emerges is two writers meeting in language to contemplate tenderness, inheritance, and the quiet ways affection survives time.
About the Authors:
Sanjay C Kuttan (b. 1964) was born in Johor Baru, Malaysia. He moved to Singapore in 1980, where he studied at St Joseph’s Institution, and went on to complete his PhD in Pharmacology at the National University of Singapore in 1992. He spent much of his working life in the energy and maritime industries, under the employment of ExxonMobil, McKinsey & Company, Nanyang Technological University, the Energy Market Authority (Singapore), the Singapore Maritime Institute, and the Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation. He now consults under his own advisory, Kai Gaia International Advisory.
He is also the author of the poetry collections Where Fires Rage (2010), In One Breath—an anthology of pseudohaiku (2021), Under the Spell of Flickering Lights (2022) and Quilted Sails—an anthology of four voyaging poets (2023), co-authored with Roslina Chai, Dinesh Senan and Kirpal Singh. His work has been published in journals such as Men Matters Online Journal and Borderless Journal, and anthologies such as Places and Spaces (2024) and Balik Kampung 3C (2016). His mother is the writer Rosaly Puthucheary.
A Singaporean with roots in Johor Baru, Rosaly Puthucheary (b. 1936) started teaching in Malaysia in 1957. She came to Singapore to teach after graduating from University of Singapore in 1973.

She then pursued her doctorate and was conferred a Doctor of Philosophy from the National University of Singapore in 2006.
Rosaly Puthucheary writes widely across poetry and prose, including volumes of memoir and criticism. Her earliest titles include Pillow Your Dreams (1978), The Fragmented Ego (1978) and Dance on His Doorstep (1992); her most recent titles include The Call to Poetry: Poems from Pre-independence Singapore (2021), My Father’s Untold Story (2021), and rib/cage: ALLTHETIME 01 (2025), a folio of poetry co-authored with ArunDitha and Zeha.
