~An anthology written for Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month '23, '24, and '25~ It's no surprise that my stories are all written from the heart. I've been thinking, though - home is where the heart lives. Maybe I should write about my home this time around. These stories, accompanied with notes about identity and diversity, intertwine into a possibility of how culture shapes who we are today. Embark on adventures or relish in the little moments in life, filled with Chinese history, culture, mythology, and more - tidbits from where I live and where my heart lies. Each story will acclaim and pay tribute to where I am and what made me, me. After all, there's no shame in loving who you are. ------------------ Accolades: 🏅featured on @IdentityandCulture's 2026 AAPI Heritage Month / API Month Reading List 🥇1st in the Glorious Awards 🥇1st in the Dazzle Awards: Random Category 🥇1st in the Brumous Collab Awards 2024: Best Opening Line 🥈2nd in the Categories Mini Awards: Best Opening Chapter 🥉3rd in the Valentine Awards: Diversity Genre
