The Not-So-Secret Diary of a Bad Luck Girl

ANGELA TUNG is a writer in San Francisco.  Her work has appeared in The Frisky, Matador Life, The Nervous Breakdown, The New York Press and Carve Magazine. Her Young Adult novel, Song of the Stranger, was published by Roxbury Park Books.

Her latest book, Black Fish: Memoir of a Bad Luck Girl chronicles the failed marriage between a Chinese woman and Korean man, both American-born but still bound by old world traditions.  Black Fish has been called “a work of dark enchantment, in which history, magic, and fate loom as large as character and desire,” and “a beautiful, cultural tapestry that keeps the reader riveted.”

She is currently seeking a publisher.

In addition to freelancing, she is also a technical writer at Wordnik.  She has an MS in Library Science from the Pratt Institute, an MA in Creative Writing from Boston University, where she was the fiction fellow, and a BA in English from Barnard College.
