Alison Tam

Welcome to my website! I'm Alison, a freelance writer, occasional game developer and total boba fiend.


I've lived all over the world: New Jersey, Shanghai, California, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Taipei. I've been bouncing back and forth between Asia and the US my whole life, making my own home wherever I go. I've written for Autostraddle, The Book Smugglers and On She Goes, and I'm currently a game writer for Dappervolk.

I love writing short stories, making small games and exploring whatever city I land myself in next.

Site still under construction since I decided to make it myself for some damn reason instead of using a template like a normal person. Please be patient with the slapdash late-2000s Geocites-esque design. Please feel free to tell me about the mistakes in my janktastic code.

Find me on Twitter at @TheTamSlam and on Mastodon as storytam@toot.cat.
