Irene Te is a writer of cozy contemporary books full of warmth, humor, and a little romance. Generally, she loves anything ending in –cake. When she’s not writing, she works as a freelance curriculum and instructional designer. A former 2nd Grade teacher and recent grad school survivor, Irene lives on the pastoral outskirts of Houston, Texas with her husband and son.
Irene is harboring zero runaway K-pop idols in her home (that we know of). While she never envisioned becoming mainly associated with waffles, she’s 500% fine with this. You can keep up with Irene’s super glamorous author life via Instagram (@irenewritesthings), where she does occasionally post pretty pictures of books written by people other than herself.
