J. Pagaduan (he/they) is a Filipino-American writer who weaves dreams and nightmares into stories. His influences range from Edgar Allen Poe to Junji Ito, and his works range in scope from series that span decades to flash fiction that somehow feels just as robust, to the occasional poem or essay. When not writing, he can be found cooking, knitting, caring for his little one, and doing his part to make the world a better place than he found it.
