Welcome
Hello! I'm glad you're here at my website. I am, as we speak, writing a novel. This is all subject to drastic change - I'm still on the first draft - but here's an advanced mini-blurb for you:
As a gifted student with plans for her future in engineering, E thought her family's tragic history was behind her. But when a hidden journal and years of her grandmother's research come to light, it upends everything she once believed about her mother's life and death. There could be a killer out there, and much more at risk than she ever imagined.
This story is interwoven with themes that are close to my heart: intergenerational trauma and resilience, immigration, feminism, family history, racism, gender-based violence and exploitation, mental health and neurodivergence. I can't wait to share it with you. Want updates? Click here.
Thanks for visiting!

The title of this update was actually a typo. I meant to write, "It's September." And, as far as I know, "Steptember" isn't a thing, but I'm going to embrace it as a message...
Workaday. What a fun word, etymologically. Then again, isn't everything fun, etymologically?
Anywho! I'm in a moment in life when I'm transitioning out of a long...
