About Me

Iā€™ve just come out of a looong swap-bot hiatus and Iā€™m excited to get creative and mingle with people all over the world again!

I work in a bookstore, and have a soft spot for childrenā€™s books. I read some YA, lots of fantasy, paranormal romance and urban fantasy.

Iā€™m a (bit) of a hoarder and love to collect a manner of things from 1980s my little pony to pop figures, dragons and stuff others may consider junk!

David Tennant is my favourite Doctor, I have a soft spot for John Barrowman.

Iā€™m a Ravenclaw, though my favourite characters are Sirius and Draco!

I adore ferrets and rats though currently donā€™t own any at the moment. I do however have a fluffy grey and white hamster called Ambrosius.

Iā€™m an author of LGBTQ+ romance, I love to read and Iā€™ve started to get into junk journals/art journals lately.

Favorite Music

HIM, Kill Hannah, John Barrowman, Scars on 45, Placebo, Negative, 69 Eyes...

Favorite Books

Oh gosh, this will be a loooong list. I work in a bookshop, it's safe to say I love books! here goes: The Crow by James O'Barr, Lost Souls, Exquisite Corpse, Drawing Blood, Lazarus Heart, and anything else by Poppy Z. Brite. Anne Bishop's black jewel novels, Lynn Flewelling's Nightrunner series, Laurell K Hamilton's Anita Blake series, J. R. Ward, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Bret Easton Ellis; especially Rules of Attraction, David Levithan, Rhys Ford, TA Moore...

Favorite Movies

The Crow and The Crow:City of Angels (not any other sequel though), Empire Records, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Calamity Jane, Annie, Pitcch Perfect, Labyrinth...I think Iā€™m partial to musicals!

Favorite Television

Doctor Who, Buffy, Angel, Shadow Hunters, Revolution, Stranger Things, The Tribe, Heartbreak High

Favorite Crafts

Junk journal/art journaling/glue booking, paper craft (as long as itā€™s not neat!)

Jewellery making, Polymer clay, Mini books. Podca pens, mixed medi

Likes

To try and make it easier for people who may have me as their partner for something:

I like dragons, and anything slightly strange or odd.

Victoriana or anything that looks old or I can steampunk up

I love the colour purple, rats, ferrets, hamsters, healing crystals, junk mail from other places....

dislikes

I don't like spiders, coconut or white chocolate...especially all in one!;)

Comment: Both the little diorama and the card are beautiful! Thanks so much! And the size of your matchbox is fine -- I compared it to an empty one I have, and it is within 1/16 of an inch of having the same length, which isn't even worth talking about! Keep up the good work, and happy swapping!
Response: i'm so glad you liked it! i had lots of fun making it, once i stopped panicing about the size lol!
