I know you’re not supposed to separate books by the race of the author but I do 😅😅 I love seeing all my #AsianAmAF authors together. I will attempt to take another picture of the books behind the other books next time 😂😂 #teachasianamericanstories #aapiheritagemonth
So proud of this piece with @17wordsonly and @nadiazadeh 🥹 It was a powerful and beautiful experience of collaboration working with these amazing scholars.

DM me if you want me to send you the article.
Sharing time! One of my favorite parts of the AsAm Voices retreat is sharing time. I got to read the very early pages of my second book (first 3 chapters written that weekend!), a horror novel, which is quite a departure from my first (as yet unpublished) novel in verse. But then got to hear from @choi_meets_world and his soon-to-be published graphic novel (that made me laugh and cry), the published @latruecrime reading from her yet unpublished YA horror, and Chu’s yet unpublished picture book. Love the range of materials and career stages. And it’s such a supportive and loving community. 🥹🥹🥹 #writersofinstagram #kidlitwriter #AsianAmAF #aapiheritagemonth
Look at what I came home to yesterday! My daughter crocheted this for me for Mother’s Day, and it’s so cute I want to scream 😂 My son didn’t even greet me 🙄 Thank goodness for daughters 😅😅😅
I left the Asian American Voices retreat at @boydsmills with the message of “open.” I went in with an open mind and heart, met so many new friends, renewed other friendships, explored some new writing, and had such an immensely moving, powerful, and soul-filling time. This was exactly what I needed after a hard year and such a good way to transition towards some new beginnings. Love these people and this place.

Last run at @boydsmills 😭 I love this place so much 🥹 Today’s 4 miles was definitely not the 50 miles of the Ice Age race (yesterday) I had to defer again, but I’ll take the progress!
Morning yoga and some early writing before breakfast at @boydsmills 🌈 Trying to make my dreams come true. We made origami hearts with our wishes inside and sent them up to the heavens (via the fire place 😂) last night. Hope everyone’s wishes, especially @latruecrime and Chu’s 🥹 #writersoninstagram #kidlitcommunity #AsianAmAF
I was supposed to run 50 miles next week. Today I ran 4 miles for the first time since September 🫠🫠 4 miles is awesome, but I’m also sad to have had to defer #iceage50 for yet another year. Sigh #slowANDsteady #recoveringrunner #instarunners #runnersofinstagram
