The Official First Batch.
Printing began 11 SEP 2026.
In honor of those who served and to highlight those who still serve.
A memoir in two voices, written like a wiring diagram.
There were only so many in the first batch. This is one of them.
RLYLILY is a debut memoir written by two women who lived the same years from opposite ends of the country and tell it in alternating chapters. MADMō, a Navy avionics technician, writes hers the way she communicates with aircraft: voltage, circuit, resistance, ground, light. Adeline Ward, a filmmaker, writes hers in scenes: table reads, supporting cast, going off script, back to one.
Read separately, they're two stories. Read together, tit forms a parallel circuit.
No corporate backing. Published by RLYLILY Studio, an imprint of MADMO, LLC — a veteran-owned, Filipina-founded indie press. The founder pulled her retirement to print this.

Testimonials
LaRae H.I’ve just started reading. It’s good! I’m not wanting to stop. I like how it’s really 2 POVs of life that are connected. The writing though technical is easy to understand and follow. I like how your word are in that more techy text whereas hers are “normal” book text.
