Her Story
Kana Wu is a bilingual author who writes her novels in English as her second language. She likes traveling and used to work in accounting before deciding to become a writer in 2018, as it was better suited to her creative mind.
Growing up in Southeast Asia, this introvert writer always dreamed of writing a good book and got inspired by her favorite authors: Enid Blyton, Agatha Christie, Jane Austen, Alice Hoffman, Julie Murphy, and Arthur Conan Doyle.
Her debut novel, No Romance Allowed, won the Romance category for the 2020 TCK Publishing Readers’ Choice Awards Contest.
Her second novel, No Secrets Allowed, earned a 1st Place Blue Ribbon for the Chatelaine Book Awards for Romantic Fiction, a division of the 2021 Chanticleer International Book Awards.
Her third book, A Warm Rainy Day in Tokyo, was published in 2022, and she had the idea when she was stranded in a Japanese café in Tokyo because of the rain.
Currently, she resides in beautiful Southern California with her husband, surrounded by her books and the occasional hummingbird or wild bird visitors.
