Fang Fang (Chinese: 方方) is the pen name of Wang Fang (汪芳; born 11 May 1955), a Chinese writer who won the Lu Xun Literary Prize in 2010. She was born in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province. She went to Wuhan University in 1978 to study Chinese. In 1975, she began to write poetry and in 1982, she launched her first novel Da Peng Che Shang (大篷车上). In 1987, she released her masterpiece "Feng Jing"(风景), and won the 1987-1988 national outstanding medium-length novel award. Her other work, including Qin Duan Kou (琴断口), and Xing Yun Liu Shui (行云流水), "Jiang Na Yi An" (江那一岸), "Yi Chang San Tan" (一唱三叹), have been well received as well. Since she cares much about the poor, many of her work reflect their genuine lives.

During the 2020 Hubei lockdowns, Fang Fang used social media to share her Wuhan Diary(武汉日记), a daily account of life in the locked-down city posted. The account drew international public attention.

The English version of Wuhan Diary, translated by Michael Berry, will be published by Harper Collins in June 2020.

According to Global Times, a nationalistic daily newspaper under administration of the Chinese Communist Party, the publication drew outrage from the Chinese audience, due to the diary's imagery of the Chinese government and the alleged use of second-hand sources. The speed of its English and German translations, which both became available to pre-order on Amazon on April 8, merely two weeks after the completion of its original Chinese Weibo version (which was finished on March 25), also drew criticism from Chinese sources, including speculation regarding “potential collaborations with foreign influences”.

In the book, Fang Fang calls for an end to Internet censorship in China, saying: “Dear internet censors, you should let Wuhan people speak”.
