✍️ Author | 💭 Dreamer | 💻 Builder | 💪 Survivor
Hi, I'm CK Ann. I'm a software engineer and writer, drawn to quiet truths and emotional depth.Welcome to my inner world. A space of quiet reflection, tender truths, and stories that stay.
It began as mine, but if even one line finds you, then maybe it’s a space we now share.
MY FIRST DEBUT
Soft Enough to Break, Strong Enough to Stay
This book is a memoir-in-verse that began as a way for me to make sense of loss, grief, and quiet resilience.In these pages, I reflect on the journey from the warmth of childhood to the heartbreak of losing my father, through silent struggles and survival jobs, toward an unexpected sense of belonging in unfamiliar places.📦 Available on Amazon, Apple Books, Kobo, and more.
Fragments of My Quiet
Reflections from the spaces in between
This space holds pieces of my story.
A space for soft thoughts, honest reflections, and the slow unfolding of self.
I write to make sense of where I’ve been, and to offer something to those walking a similar path.
About Me
A journey across disciplines, guided by softness and strength
I began my professional life in law, but eventually chose a different path, transitioning into backend software engineering in the UK fintech world. Behind the shift was something deeper, a quiet, personal story of survival, self-discovery, and the courage to begin again.My writing lives at the intersection of tenderness and truth. I write to make sense of what I’ve lived through and to hold space for others doing the same. If you’ve ever had to start over, carry silent grief, or quietly rebuild yourself, you may find something familiar here.I'm still becoming. Still staying.
