Ashe Song is a software engineer by day, an author by night, and a traumatized Korean gremlin at all times. She was an unnervingly gifted child, a deeply mediocre teenager, and then a high-functioning burnout adult under threat of ancestral shame, because heaven forbid she be a human person instead of a résumé with legs.

She was STILL disowned at twenty-five despite reaching every possible expectation. For marrying for love. No, she hasn’t processed it.

So now she’s a tragic poet with a keyboard, chasing dreams that were violently murdered in childhood and resurrected through sheer spite, dehydration, and dissociation.

Why does she write?

Because something HOWLS in her if she doesn’t.
She writes purely to keep the unholy beast inside her from clawing its way into the daylight.

…And for every kid who was told they were too much, too weird, too emotional, and decided to become a weaponized story instead.

In 2025, she wrote two books in seven months while working and being in school full-time, sacrificing her sleep, hormones, and understanding of linear time in the process.

And they slap.

You’re welcome.
