Birds of a literary feather are flocking for a festival that will feature more than 60 writers and 100 events, including book launches, workshops and even "death matches".

The fourth installment of the annual Bookworm International Literary Festival is 25 percent bigger than last year, a sure sign that it has established itself as one of the major stopovers on Asia's burgeoning book festival scene.

Migrant authors penned in for the two-week event beginning March 6, include Liu Hong, who lives in England, Chinese-American poet Tina Chang and Pulitzer Prize winner HS Liu.
