Cici Thư Đinh
Hello, my name is Cici and I am an aspiring writer who writes all kinds of stories, mostly romance, tragedy and sometimes even existential horror. I'm also an English student with a specialisation in Business English. I have many talents and have also delved into art, coding, crocheting, etc. and I'm planning to make a game of my own too if I have the time.Now that the introduction is out of the way, let me introduce you to some of my work!
Alone
Alone is a short emotional work that has an artistic re-imagine of what happened after my first break up. It is a very personal work, and it contains a lot of emotions in it, some of it was sadness, anger, desperation and acceptance. Only half of what I wrote in there are actually true, but due to its being based of my real life, I cannot reveal which one is real and which one is not. But all of that aside, this is a very important work in my life, and I hope you can feel it too when you read it.
Spores: A Halloween Poem about Decomposition
When I was studying as British Literature class as an English Major, my professor gave us an assignment to write a Halloween poem. In the span of 30 minutes, I wrote this poem about spores, mortality, death, decay and how they intermingle with life itself. So far, I think it's one of my best works along with the two other ones above.
A Collection of Miscellaneous Works by Cici
A collection of poems and short stories that I have written all over the years. Some works are very personal and some are existential, some are tragedies and there are a lot about love. I post this collection for my portfolio mainly but feel free to give me kudos if you enjoy my works.
My Dating Agency: Caspian
This is my first VN project that I worked on during the Otome Jam 2024. Caspian is a alternative girl with many interesting and strange hobbies to other people. In her route, she struggle with people's perception of her, especially when it's her potential lover. In the game, she goes through a dating agency and talks about relationship problems with you (the Matchmaker) and as the MC, you help her through her problems and find a lover.
Please Boost Me Above A 2.0
This is a VN project that I worked on for the Winter Jam 2025. I am the writer for Genesis route, who is a gender-fluid Filipino who have a big traditional family who isn't exactly supportive of the Queer community. As the player gets closer to her and discover more about her life, she grew to be more confident in her identity and believe you to be a person she comes to trust and love. As you play through her route, you start to discover more about yourself and how, in turns, you grow to be more resilient and trust in yourself more.
