Wonderful to see Oct's full Harvest Moon during Chuseok, Korean Thanksgiving/autumn harvest celebrations (Oct 6-8, 2025). My family and I practice gratitude, honour our ancestors, and engage in self-reflection. 🌕🍂 #Chuseok #KoreanHeritage #HarvestMoon #Korean #KoreanCanadian

Started teaching a new Intro to Novel Writing class at @uoftscs.bsky.social. We explored what a strong opening paragraph might look like. One of my favourites is from Miriam Toews' A Complicated Kindness. It immediately draws readers in with its tone & narrative voice. #WritingFiction

Do you want to write a novel but don't know how to get started? In this @uoftscs.bsky.social writing course, there are no grades - just a lot feedback from me & your peers to help shape the story you want to tell. Plus, the intro to novel writing class is online.

My new novel, #AllThingsUndertheMoon, was released today!

Na-Young, my protagonist, was inspired by my great-grandmother. I hope you enjoy her story.

A huge thanks to my incredible team at @simonschusterca.bsky.social and my agent Jackie Kaiser at @westwoodcreative.bsky.social ❤️

I have a new novel coming out this fall! #HistoricalFiction www.simonandschuster.ca/books/All-Th...
Image of a book cover on a red background. The book is navy blue. The title, All Things Under the Moon, is in white. Under that are small images of green mountains, a road, and a flowing river with two fish jumping. The author's name, Ann YK Choi, appears in green. A silver moon is on the top left hand corner. Coming September 2025 is below the book cover, along with a small Simon & Schuster logo.

Love seeing the moon against a blue sky.
