Virginia Duan is a writer incapable of writing in brief. She swears. A lot. She finds it impossible to refrain from commenting online for the sole purpose of making people admit they are idiots. Fatal flaw is fatal. She discusses the deeply uncomfortable and humiliating with biting humor and glimpses of grace; loves the injudicious use of ALLCAPS; is #teamoxfordcomma; and always stans BTS. Virginia was a Listen to Your Mother SF 2016 cast member and you can find her work on various sites like Romper, Mom.com, and Mochi Magazine. She chronicles her mishaps at mandarinmama.com.
