On a meager performance of anonymity and storytelling.

?, C. Snick, Clairy Dahrling, Daphne Cariño— and hell of a lot more monikers later — is a twenty something storyteller, aspirant, and devourer of words. Currently found writing cosy mysteries, con artists, and love stories. Adores tricksy characters and trickier plot twists. Most of all, she's fond of taking a cliche, a trope, a fan favourite, twisting it in her own way and seeing where it gets her.
 
(Usually, in the creation of more murders. She hopes the FBI Agent— lovingly and gender-neutrally dubbed, Jim — monitoring her search history is having a fabulous day).
 
She has written and finished several novels, novellas, and short stories; a few bearing local accolades, while another is currently in Wattpad's Originals program. Some of her works have also been featured in local and international publications.
 
When she's not writing, she's struggling to finish her TBR, participating in the creation and curation of essays by other women in their twenties, and is usually found daydreaming between starry seas of thought and murder plot. Or a new pseudo.

Substack is a newsletter curation of personal essays and more in depth behind the scenes. The ? sends you to the Tumblr Ask where you can toggle Anonymous and ask any question at any time. Or say hi. Or make theories.
 
E-mail is for business purposes only.
 
Apart from YONDER, Wattpad is the only place she posts her webnovels online.
