+== Welcome ==
 Welcome to the Ahmieverse, where I (Ahmie Yeung) am inviting you to come play in the very crowded fictional playground that has been under construction in my brain for the last couple of decades while motherhood has kept me from writing about these characters as much as I wanted. They are as real to me as anyone who isn’t physically in the same room at a given moment, and I ''want'' them to be a presence in others’ lives as well, so I’m starting by sharing them here. Every character and other aspect that appears on this site is planned to appear in at least one (and probably more) of the novels that have been taking shape in my head during the years when motherhood consumed too much of my time to write fiction. (In the same years I honed my non-fiction skills amidst constant interruptions to the point that I completed an academic journal–length write-up of my original sociological research during my last semester of my Master’s degree while exclusively breastfeeding my fourth son, who was six weeks old when the semester started and not yet six months old at Commencement.)
 That being said, there are likely to be spoilers here, so tread with care if you '''don’t''' want advance knowledge of things I have planned in the stories I’m trying to bring into sharable form. If you’d like, feel free to play with the characters at points earlier in their development than when I’ll be including them in my stories (which I’ll mark on their character pages), and then share that with me so I can tell you how well it fits my understanding of them. I might even work some of that into the story I’m writing if I haven’t finished it yet. Think of this as a level‑up on the “Choose Your Own Adventure” stories I loved so much in childhood: you’re welcome to keep your digital thumb  (or an extra browser tab) in one page while you rabbit‑hole through another.

 The Ahmieverse is ''intentionally'' open to transformative works, including fanfiction and other derivatives, both noncommercial ''and'' commercial. I use a Creative Commons license and an ethical “commons covenant” so that people can build on these characters and settings while crediting their origins and, where possible, letting some of the proceeds support causes they care about. See [[Open Canon & Transformative Works Policy]] for details on what’s formally permitted and what I’m hoping to nurture here.
