I won a book token when I was 10 for writing a book review for the local newspaper. That was the last writing award I won until...this! So thrilled to receive this certificate and pen from the #IndieInkAward for my found-family Sci-Fi novel, Orphan Planet

Hi #SFFtalk! I'm a HK-born, Sydney-based Chinese-Australian author who writes epic fantasy.

My debut, PETITION, was an #SPFBO 9 semi-finalist & 2023 #IndieInkAward winner. It's JADE CITY x THE HUNGER GAMES.

The sequel, SUPPLICANT, has vibes like SIX OF CROWS x MISTBORN with a LOCKED TOMB twist.

#SPFBO semi-finalist, #IndieInkAward and #BBNYA finalist @ormakal.bsky.social has a TON of books to choose from, but Pradyutita is the one on my TBR.

VOTING OPEN! Just noticed my narration of @poopraven.bsky.social's wonderful Wheel of Fate is (also) up for an #IndieInk award & I'd be tremendously grateful if you vote for it 🙏

What happens after magic school?

So I did a long 🧵 over on Muskworld of all the titles I think deserve a shot at the #indieinkaward this year & the categories they're a good fit for, but bluesky doesn't do threads unless I'm a moron (very possible) so if your moral code still allows then I gently suggest checking that thread out.

Congratulations to Baptiste Pinson Wu for winning the #IndieInkAward for his incredible book, #UndeadSamurai.

Well deserved.

If you haven't read this book yet, pick it up. It's great.
