In our new series called RepresentASIAN in Literature, we'll be interviewing Asian authors and highlighting moments in their career. Literature, from poems to novels, is a powerful part of sharing stories and new ideas. Having representation of Asian culture through these stories and the authors who write them is crucial to the way we, as Asian youth, see ourselves in American culture.

This series' second episode features Giboom Park, the author of 'Not Your Yellow Fantasy'. In this interview with hosts Lisa and Sandy, she shares why she decided to write a novel highlighting the reality of yellow fever along with her own personal experiences. She also gives some insight on the writing process and obstacles while balancing a student life.
