This was one of the hardest things I've ever written. It's full of the hurt that so many of us have experienced as first and second-gen immigrants, as daughters, as caretakers, as those just trying to hold on. Hope you'll check it out.

So excited my new story, “You Will Be You Again,” about intergenerational trauma and the US healthcare system, is out today in @interzone.digital! Featuring artwork by the amazing @dntlz.bsky.social! interzone.digital/you-will-be-...

YOU WILL BE YOU AGAIN // IZ Digitalinterzone.digital ‘You don’t need to be anything for anybody. Just you, you just need to be you.’ // ‘You Will Be You Again’, a story by Angela Liu with art by Dante Luiz

"But then somewhere, unbidden, a yellow light would surface in my thoughts....A feeling that someone might come and then take everything away soon. That all the things...could be taken from me without warning again." "Alabama Circus Punk" in ergot Art by the killer @thoughtographic.bsky.social

Hey there. My latest story is now online and free to read. "Alabama Circus Punk." Where things only mean things because we say they mean things. Take care of your family-bodies. Watch out for Gordons. And keep an eye out for the yellow light. www.ergot.press/authors/Thom...
