"She severed her raven locks, concealed her feminine form—yet could not hide her dazzling brilliance. A forged eunuch's decree hurled her into the palace's bone-devouring depths. When the Crown Prince's all-seeing gaze pinned her in place, she knew: in this lethal game of gender and power, to lose was death... but to win might be far worse."

"Sever him at once! Unless you wish to witness his death before your very eyes—from you, in the year 2033."

When Lin Xiaxia received this bizarre text, she was nestled with her boyfriend Xu Yuan on the sofa. She scoffed, until her phone abruptly initiated a video call—the woman on the screen was her spitting image, save for a scar above her eye.

"Listen here, you fool," her future self said icily, "Every choice you make now is leading to his demise."

—Yet, as Lin Xiaxia tried to escape fate's grasp, she discovered that the most terrifying thing wasn't the paradox of time, but that her future self seemed to have fallen for the very man she was supposed to "let go"…

In this space, I will provide some samples of my work, links to new releases, free previews of my books and/or articles, and perhaps some general thoughts on writing. I hope there may be something here that is of interest to readers in general. And I am glad to be in your company.

“We live in a world of gliphs.”

“The left arm chamber, right arm chamber, left leg chamber, right leg chamber, wind chamber and the heart chamber. These are the six chambers of gliph that represent a glipher’s quality.”

In his previous life, he was the best metalsmith on the continent; even the most powerful fighters came to him for weapons. He was no doubt a powerful man, but sadly, his incapability to retaliate left him at the mercy of others.

Chui Yim, once dead, reincarnated into the world of gliphs, accompanied by Heaven’s Flame. However, the violent introduction of Heaven’s flame crippled his heart chamber.

Born with a heart deficiency, he was unable to perform strenuous exercise, let alone engage in physical fights. As such, his father who worked as a doctor made him study hard and sent him to the Riding Clouds Academy, where he met a close friend who was escaping from his family’s murderer.

Determined to write his own destiny, Chui Yim vowed to break limits and take up the path of a cultivator.

​​​​​​​Join Chui Yim as he embarks on his journey of cultivation, a thorny journey full of blood, tears, and enlightenment. This mystical and martial arts chivalry novel, “Night of the Broken Gliph”, by the famous Hong Kong author, Maple Shing, will definitely not disappoint!

Stay tuned for chapter 1

In this space I'll post samples of my poetry and some links to readings of my poetry.

I've written poetry since before my teen years through today. Sonnets are my favorite form of poetry, but I write in a broad range of styles and on subjects that span the gamut of the pain and ecstasy that each of us faces as part of the human condition.As is true of my fiction,  I hope that you may find something it it that strikes a responsive chord in you, lets you see the world from a different perspective, and leaves you thinking.

I do not pay to advertise my work or for reviews (a common practice for independently published books), so I very much appreciate it when readers leave some feedback--positive or negative--or simply "like" my work. Nothing makes a writer feel more like the proverbial voice crying in the wilderness when she/he gets thousands of views of their work but hears only crickets when trying to determine whether it strikes the wished for responsive chord in any reader.

Thanks for reading!

In the quiet magic-soaked valley of Stardew, secrets grow deeper than roots and darker than the mines. When Hannah inherits her grandfather's farm, she expects soil, sweat, and maybe some solitude-but instead, she stumbles into ancient scrolls, mysterious creatures, and a wizard with ties to a dangerous past. As the townspeople's carefully buried secrets begin to unearth themselves-like Abigail discovering her real father isn't who she thought, or Sebastian catching feelings he swears he doesn't have-Hannah finds herself at the center of a mystery much bigger than crops and chickens. Caught between Sebastian, the guarded misfit who sees the world in poetry and shadows, and Alex, the town's golden boy hiding a soft heart behind his smirk, Hannah must navigate the tangled lines of friendship, loyalty, and longing. With a witch threatening to rise, a talisman to retrieve, and a found family forming around her whether she likes it or not, Hannah must decide how far she's willing to go to protect the valley-and the people she's grown to care for Drama, comedy, heartache, this story will keep you anticipating what is next, just like our favorite RPG game, Stardew Valley.
