In DIRTY KITCHEN, I wrote my final years as an #undocumented #immigrant, what I thought and feared at the time about Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) and why I decided to not move forward with applying for it. I hate how right I've turned out to be.

I got a notification from someone requesting addition to the AAPISky starter pack but clicked through and lost the skeet or DM or reply, and can’t find the person who reached out.

If it was you, please re-contact me!

Seriously, can’t wait for the next two volumes. I’m embarrassed to say there were events in this first volume I didn’t know anything about. The more you know! #HusbandBookClub #AAPISky

As an added bonus of our #HusbandBookClub, @tienpham.bsky.social and I just read “Volume I of Fighting to Belong! AANHPI History from the 1700s Through the 1800s.”

There is so much critical history packed in these pages, with accompanying back matter and curriculum guides!

Nick holds a copy of a comic or graphic novel: Fighting to Belong! Volume 1: Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander History from the 1700s through the 1800s by Amy Chu, Alexander Chang, and Louie Chin from Third State Books. The cover features a sepia-toned background featuring Asians and Asian Americans from the past. In the center circle are four middle schoolers of different ethnicities an a Japanese-Haitian adult.

Hey #AAPISky, if you’re writing a book, making a film, producing music or doing anything creative that needs some shine, can I talk to you? I need a few stories up to relaunch a magazine featuring our voices. 🩷✨

Finished reviewing my publisher’s 2nd proof of my memoir ✔️ This was the most trauma-laden chapter (built around dinuguan, a Filipino blood stew, and the manananggal, a mythological Filipino creature). @atriabooks.bsky.social

Oops, never posted the full look here! I'm continuing to document my wigs with different styles, and this wastelander look was up next!

Photo of AuroraInsanity in post-apocalyptic wear. They have a black pleather vest with a few metal studs and patches. Around their waist is a belted open-front skirt composed entirely of patches. They're wearing a waist-length brown wavy wig and a rainbow-chrome lensed pair of black goggles. They also have some face paint/makeup with simple tribal lines across the nose, cheeks, and lips.
