No. 1 Immigrant Daughter

Infrequent recommendations and critiques of culture that I’ve loved reading, watching, experiencing and listening to... so you might enjoy it too.

Like Dear Abby, but for writers

letters and essays about fiction, power, beauty and how we live and think, from a novelist, nice things enjoyer, sometimes-organizer. "This newsletter feels like the best of the old internet." - Lit Hub

Immigrant-American writer. Unfiltered and unafraid.

Writing that boldly disregards normal restraints.

The person asking a question at the beginning of a Tarot card reading. Or, a newsletter project by Alexander Chee.

I watch a lot of South Asian shows and movies so you don't have to.

Life itself as a creative process.
