She is currently living back in Jakarta on the same street as her parents and about seven hundred meddlesome aunties. When she's not tearing out her hair over her latest WIP, she spends her time baking and playing FPS games. Oh, and also being a mom to her two kids. ...more

Quotes by Jesse Q. Sutanto (?)

“People always say that your wedding day is the happiest day of your life, but honestly, people should try solving murders more often.”
― Jesse Q. Sutanto, Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers

“Meddy, how can you say that? Your aunties coming over, so late at night, coming to help us get rid of body, and we don’t even offer them any food? How can? Oh, we have dragon fruit, good, good.”
― Jesse Q. Sutanto, Dial A For Aunties

“Maybe you do something slightly bad, so what? Now you learn from it. You have a better judgment now. Better morals, because you learn from your personal mistake. This what life is about, Riki. No one is perfect, making right decisions all the time. Only those who are so privileged can make right decision all the time. The rest of us, we have to struggle, keep afloat. Sometimes we do things we are not proud of. But now you know where your lines are. You are good boy, Riki. You have good heart. That is all that matters.”
― Jesse Q. Sutanto, Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers
