I’m an indie author who writes because I love it. I work on my own and learn as I go, and each book is something I put a lot of heart into. Well, maybe not my first book!

Most of my ideas come from traveling, being outside, cultural misunderstandings, or just paying attention to everyday life. When I am not writing, I am usually on a trail somewhere, enjoying a good cup of coffee, or with my dog.

I appreciate everyone who takes the time to read my work. Your support helps me keep going, and I’m truly thankful for it.

I’ve always loved how it hides just beyond the edges of our world; behind a wardrobe door, inside a painting, or through a ring dropped in a quiet pool. The idea that an ordinary moment could open into something extraordinary has always enchanted me. So many possibilities!

I imagine stepping through and feeling the air change; crisp and golden, full of pine and wildflowers. I’d wander through sunlit forests where the trees seem to whisper and talk with wise old animals who’ve seen centuries of magic. I think I’d ride across wide green fields on the back of a talking horse, discover forgotten ruins, and maybe even stand beneath the stars while Aslan’s song echoes faintly through the night.

Just the thought of it makes the world feel bigger, as if wonder could be waiting anywhere, if only I knew where to look.

Oh boy, this stupid I know but when I was younger, I even used to check the back of my closets with my eyes closed, just in case a doorway to Narnia or anywhere, in fact, was waiting.(less)

Because of that, if I had to pick a mystery from my own life that could be a plot for a book, it would be the strange coincidences that keep linking me to some people in completely different places.

It’s like I’ll move to a new city, thinking I’m starting fresh, and then bump into someone who somehow already knows a friend of mine from years ago, or who once lived in the same city as I did or went to the same school. It almost feels like an invisible thread is pulling certain people back into my life no matter where I go.(less)

From China, With Stories: Writing, Creating, and Living Abroad

Hi everyone! I’m Ashlee, an author currently living in China, writing books, exploring creative projects like 3D printing, and soaking up the adventure of living abroad. I’ve written a couple of books already, including a personal story about my life in China and a dystopian thriller full of suspense (and maybe a few twists you won’t see coming).

This blog is where I’ll share more about my writing Read more of this blog post »
