In parenting and family wellbeing, Wempy co-wrote Persiapan Persalinan dan 1000 Hari Pertama with Dr Harys Maulana, a comprehensive guide to pregnancy preparation, parenting, and early childhood development.

His publishing activities also include international collaboration through Main untuk Menang, written by Ellis Bartholomeus. The book was originally titled Speel Het Spel in Dutch and also Apply Play to get Ahead of the Game in English was translated and adapted for the Indonesian market. It explores games, competition, and human behaviour, arguing that challenge, uncertainty, reward, negotiation, and even failure are essential parts of growth and achievement. It also examines how games can strengthen memory, improve learning, support health campaigns, solve social problems, improve recruitment processes, and strengthen family relationships. Challenging outdated stereotypes around gaming, the publication positions games as tools for motivation, learning, creativity, and social impact.
