I write long-form literary and speculative fiction focused on time, memory, consequence, and endurance. My work spans literary realism, fantasy, science fiction, sci-fi fantasy, and adventure, written in Bahasa Indonesia and English.

My self-published works in Bahasa Indonesia include Mei yang Tidak Pernah Usai - Cindo di Tanah Jawa (Magnum Opus), a novel of collective memory set against the May 1998 riots with a domestic lens and strict ethical discipline, alongside Wareg Ngepet, Guntur Suroso, Yang Pernah Kita Rencanakan, Yang Bertahan Tidak Selalu Menang, Ketika Doa Menyebut Nama yang Sama, and Mereka yang Dilupakan.

On Wattpad, I've completed The Wound We Kept, When The Stars Forgot Our Names, Almost My Husband (English), and Tanteholic (Bahasa Indonesia). My current ongoing work is FOURFOLD, a long-form sci-fi fantasy saga where time never resets and every choice carries consequence.


I write for readers who value depth over speed, patience over shortcuts, and stories that grow heavier-and more meaningful-the longer they are lived in. Find all my works at lacademic[dot]com
