Pitching my work as a Sapphic South East Asian Pirates of the Caribbean with a fire wielding pirate queen and a runaway failed healer captured by slavers - who can hear the crocodiles singing about drowning them all

Daughters of Flood and Fury is out now!

She's not my emergency contact. She's the one I trust once we're in fubar territory. She didn't start the war, she will end it. She will fix the problem- that may involve throwing a man out a window.

Meet Lunurin from SAINTS OF STORM AND SORROW

"Go to a stormcaller for vengeance, for they do not heal and they do not save." - SAINTS OF STORM AND SORROW

What if I told you I wrote an anti-colonial Filipino inspired Avatar the Last Airbender except the Avatar is not a pacifist?

When @readingismagical.bsky.social says you wrote a book w/ " These are the thighs that killed Magellan vibes"

You obviously travel to the Mactan Shrine to see where Datu Lapulapu's warriors killed Magellan

If this is your vibe you need my Anti- colonial Filipino fantasy abt drowning colonizers

Author's first book tattoo!!!
🚨Warning for sfw censored side boob 🤣😅

It's "saints" and "daughters" in Tagalog in baybayin calligraphy! The grey scrollwork is filigree designs from the precolonial Filipino gold where my family is from, Laguna. 🥰 Plus my cousin Cy helped me design it 🥰

It's Filipino American History Month and I'm a queer Fil-Am author writing award nominated Filipino epic fantasy that tackles generational trauma, anti-colonial themes, and the catharsis and strength in naming our hidden burdens instead of endless "resilience".

Now that's Sobrang Pinay 🙌🏽🇵🇭

I've entered my showgirl era

You can't tell me this wasn't written for my heroine, Daughter of the Goddess of Storms 🙌🏽⛈️⛈️⛈️🙌🏽

Check out Saints of Storm and Sorrow! Come for the epic lightning magic and sizzling bi love triangle romance, stay for drowning colonizers ⛈️🙌🏽🌊

Aren't you Tired of being Nice?

Good, Daughters is
NOT about: Healing from the trauma of youth and learning to forgive and forget

More: They broke our halos so we grew teeth- time to feed the ones who wronged us to the depths of the sea 🌊🐊🌊

Come meet Inez in Daughters of Flood and Fury
October 2, 2025 at 2:00 PM
We all love: "I'd kill for you"

So how about: "I do not heal and I do not save, but whatever power I have it is yours. Let the tides turn and the seas roar. walk with me and the sea will rise on the wings of my Storm... Aynila won't mourn the death of monsters"
October 1, 2025 at 8:55 PM
When the one the MC loved through the darkest times in their lives, who betrayed her, and everything they'd built, and is begging for forgiveness.... But some things can't be forgiven

I loved you. I'm sorry

I don't want to spoil by identifying the ship from Saints but if you know you know 🥲🥲🥲😭
September 29, 2025 at 5:26 PM
As Bi Visibility month comes to a close I wanted to leave you with this 💗💜💙

I wrote Saints of Storm and Sorrow for every queer mixed kid that grew up always feeling like they were too much and not enough for both sides of their family. Who tied themselves in knots to find a place they'd "fit". 1/3

Book 2 Lunurin is really attempting to be a good influence on her sister Inez, but Inez is here for the drama, and never saw a bad idea she didn't like 🤣😇🐊🐉🌊

The Stormbringer Duology is complete and now you can read my Filipino mythology epic fantasy except the Avatar is not a pacifist.

Not enemies to lovers BUT...

A Marriage of Convenience

Between a prince sworn to the all merciful Goddess of the Sea. A healer, bound by duty, prepared to sacrifice himself and everyone he loves to maintain the fragile peace in his half-conquered city

And a woman chosen by the Goddess of Storms
