Henyo! And welcome backkk!!


I am proud to announce that my book is currently being edited! 🎉🎊🎊 Hence, along with that great news, workload came rushing in as well. Now I have to design a book cover and figure out the formatting! 🎀

I grew up loving to read, I read manga, poetry, literature, novels, but mainly novels. I especially love stories with cover that hails from Taiwanese publishers because they are GORGEOUS! They say 'Don't judge a book by its cover', but I say the cover is there for a reason.

I don't really like the idea that a heavy topic book has to have a 'mature' '-looking cover instead of the 'anime-style' '-looking cover like the Taiwan-published books. I used to feel the need to cover my beautiful covers because I didn't want people thinking that I was reading something 'immature' or 'oh she must be a weeb reading manga'. When approached people are often shocked that I am reading a novel that is about the jurisdiction system and the last meals of prisoners ;D


Anyway, this is the very first time I have worked on such a detailed piece and although I was worried at first, I must say that I am quite proud of it in the end! Let me know how you feel about the art piece in the comments!

About My Book🎭🎭

In short, my Book is about a lady going on a journey to seek a cure for her children, which ultimately became the journey of seeking the truth of oneself, and the truth of this world. Written in a poetic and folklore method it questions the world's foundations, humanity, morals and the philosophy of 'truth'.

The characters of this book are diverse, and each of their diversity is heavily depicted in the way they dress and talk.

All illustrations are designed by me, straight from my POV ;)
