About

Hi! My name is Siel, pronounced like the initials C.L.

I’m a writer and reader and the author of a novel-in-stories called Cake Time. I also write a newsletter called Love notes from Siel — weekly updates on love, writing, and the nomad life that readers have called “a joy,” fuel for “destructive impulses,” and “a sad and beautiful pleasure.”

Have questions or comments? Find me on Instagram at @sielju. You can also drop me a line — or come see me at an event.

And lastly, here’s my third-person author bio, if that’s what you’re here looking for:

Siel Ju writes the newsletter Love notes from Siel and is the author of Cake Time, winner of the Red Hen Press Fiction Manuscript Award. Her stories and poems appear in ZYZZYVA, The Southern Review, Confrontation, and other places. The recipient of residencies from Ragdale, The Anderson Center at Tower View, and Vermont Studio Center, Siel holds a Ph.D. in Literature and Creative Writing from the University of Southern California.
