Japanese Fantasy Author
Kasumi Sonoda
Sitting at her grandfather’s feet, Kasumi learned to love her Japanese Hawaiian heritage, even though she only ever visited those faraway islands in the stories he told with his lilting pidgin accent. Now Kasumi is the storyteller, writing Young Adult Fiction about Asian heroes who embody courage and self-sacrifice. Stories for people longing for home in a world that doesn’t feel like their own. When taking a (forced) break from storying, you’ll find Kasumi playing with worms in the garden, dancing to loud music while learning to cook Japanese food, or discussing deep moral questions over boba with friends, old and new.
