It’s not exactly a promo? Not sure. But this is regarding a side project I started a couple of years ago, inspired by a short creative writing assignment I submitted for a class in 2021.
I’m working on a short story titled The Awakened Queen, and this is the moodboard I created for it a while ago.

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 2 (late):
I’ve been working on the same main WIP novel since 2020. I call it City of Blood & Shadows. The concept is “Silo meets Vampires,“ basically. I’m reworking the outline and logline at this time.

Hi! I’m ace, AuDHD, & parent to an amazing three year old and two adorable cats. My ex-spouse and co-parent passed away in June, and I’m trying to reclaim joy and a semblance of stability by returning to my spiritual and creative practices, and finding community on and off the Web. #lgbtqwriteathon

Gorgeous photo from The Color Nature Library: CATS by Peggy Wratten, 1977. I can't find the photographer's name, unfortunately. None is noted anywhere in the book.

When I was growing up autistic kids were "hyper" or "had water on the brain" and there was always a raft of "weird kids" who were socially ostracized because they had a hard time people-ing. If you don't think autism existed before it was commonly called "autism," it's because you chose not to see.
My dad truly believed that people just didn't have autism when he was growing up and I had to be the one to break it to him that autistic people who didn't fit in WERE PUT INTO INSTITUTIONS
