Bio

Maybe the real plot was the friends we made along the way. [Last Updated: February 1, 2025]


I'm too old for this shit and I have learned not to share too much of my personal life on the internet. I earned a 4-year English degree, work as an English and writing tutor at a local college, a communications copywriter for a non-profit, and I'm a development editor at an academic publishing company. That means I word good.

I like literature and poetry. I first started writing as a hobby with online roleplay at the start of 2010, and I've slowly drifted away from it in recent years. I enjoy most genres, but if I had to pick a couple of favorites, they would be sci-fi and high fantasy—heavy emphasis on the high fantasy. Some of my favorite moments have come from Elder Scrolls roleplays, since it appeals to the D&D nerd in me.

I have a tendency to get carried away with making my character sheets. I've always been a fan of characters overcoming their weaknesses and obstacles and I try to make that show in many of my characters. Therefore, many of the narratives I explore come from a place of vulnerability, but I try to balance the heavy themes with light whimsy. Sometimes though that door swings the other way and I lean into the whimsy while sneaking in moments of vulnerability.

I also try to research whatever it is I'm writing about so that I'm not just spitting into the wind. Unless that's what my character is doing, in which case I try to make sure that's made clear in my writing. Sometimes that gets in the way, like in the case of blacksmith character I wanted to make but felt compelled to study up on blacksmithing first (don't fall into that trap, no one really gives a shit).

It’s kind of hard to define my style, as I’m influenced by all sorts of literary movements and schools of criticism; dark romanticism, modernism, post-modernism, Marxism, feminism, post-structuralism—I have a lot of isms in my pocket. Nathaniel Hawthorne is one of my favorite dark romantic authors, Dickinson is one of my favorite naturalist poets, Judith Ortiz Cofer, Langston Hughes, and Robert Frost—they’ve all in some ways informed my writing, as well as many others. I even tend to look to some of my fellow guild mates for inspiration or analyze what I like about their writing and see what I can do to improve my own through their example.

FINALS ARE FUCKING ME

WILL BE BACK FRIDAY

If you want, you can take control of Ari for me. I dont want to hold you up.


Except I don't feel comfortable controlling Ari, I don't really know her characterization.
Some of them were super big collabs that got broken up.
As soon as JunkMail gets on, I'll be able to finish an introduction and I can get a collab going with Allen involving Reyna's questioning, and then I can proceed with one of the plots. If anyone else wants to get in on that, let me know.
Nick gave me some convenience idea and Overload sounds like the one I wanna go for.
It might make sense if Reyna participates in the Demon if she will be around Meifeng soon, but I want to focus on my character rather than more fighting. Although it wasn't shown that much. So Overload or Reform sounds good. Between those three, IDK. Does someone want their character to interact with mine in particular?
Lihua sees Rowan's power, reminds her of Peter a bit, whoops his ass.
<Snipped quote by Spoopy Scary>

Trying to punch Archie's face is a futile attempt. Reyna would just be hitting water, basically.


Just a quote, no need to argue the feasibility of the action itself.
Added some bits to Reyna's dynamics: Arianna and Archie
In my defense, Reyrianna is planned.

Speaking of impossible sex, Reyna's power is unfortunate for anybody with nerves or the desire to keep their flesh intact (assuming they even get that close to her).
