I'm WEN,
A Storyteller at Heart

With over fifteen years of experience crafting narratives across multiple mediums, I believe in the transformative power of words. My work spans from intimate short stories to sweeping novels, each piece carefully woven to touch the human experience.

Based in the vibrant city of Auckland, New Zealand, I draw inspiration from the stunning landscapes and diverse cultures that surround me. Every story I tell is an exploration of what makes us human—our dreams, fears, loves, and the connections that bind us together.

My writing has been recognized internationally, with works translated into twelve languages and featured in prestigious literary journals worldwide. I believe that great stories have the power to bridge cultures and create understanding.

Crafting

Words flow onto the page in intense writing sessions, capturing raw emotion in the first draft.

Refinement

The final stage involves countless readings and careful attention to rhythm and pacing.
