RS Kovach [hiatus]

✨Wattpad Creator/Star & Yonder✨ Bigger than a breadbox, but not by much. Also, really loves bread.

[On hiatus until 2023. Will continue weekly updates.]

I write strong yet relatable heroines, flawed but redeemable heroes, and the occasional villain you'll love to hate. I like to subvert tropes to create original ways of looking at the familiar. Common elements include intriguing settings, art and architecture; exploration of immortality (both literal and figurative); hiding symbolism in plain sight; ending chapters with kick-ass cliffhangers; and centering girls who rescue themselves. 

Published by 2 of the BIG 5. Wrote for Legendary Pictures, Hulu, Amazon Prime, and Simon & Schuster. Optioned for a podcast by MediaCorp Singapore. Numbers person at a Uni. Art historian in another life.
