sticky post

hello! as part of trying (once again) to use dreamwidth more often, i'm finally making an intro post

who i am online: i'm sky, deepestbluesky on ao3, twitter, tumblr, and discord. i'm a fic writer, a podficcer, and a fanbinder/bookbinder. the pronouns i would prefer you to use unless you already know me are they/them (and honestly any pronons are fine).

how i use this: i'm still trying to figure out how interactions on DW work, but if i've posted anything publicly, anyone is welcome to comment on it—including this post! i do have some more personal posts that are limited to access filters, and if you can see those, you are also welcome to interact with them. if you subscribe to me and/or grant me access, i'll definitely take a look at your journal, and i might or might not subscribe and grant access back!

some notes about content on this journal: i am sure i will talk about 18+ subjects sometimes and i'll try to appropriately mark those, but i think it is safer to assume that my journal is 18+ overall. i do sometimes talk about RPF, but i respect that not everyone enjoys that, so generally i'll keep any RPF discussion behind an access filter (if you're new here and we haven't interacted elsewhere, you can let me know if you would like to be included in this access filter but i will default assume most people don't). it's very unlikely that i'll crosspost things here from other websites i use, but very likely that i'll do inconsistent wrap-up posts, rec lists, and random thoughts. you're always welcome to tell me in a comment or via a message on a linked social media site if i've posted anything you think is objectionable or if you think you notice a mistake in my posts! (i don't care so much about typos in most posts, but i do care about things like misnaming authors or messing up links or weird html that makes a post unreadable)

things i like: i'm really into Shan He Ling/Tian Ya Ke/Qi Ye lately, and i've been into critical role for quite a while now. my quiet forever fandom is tamora pierce, especially emelan. i've been really into dc comics and especially batfamily and the young justice cartoon previously, and that hasn't really gone away, although i'm not very actively in that fandom at the moment. i'm really into stranger things again. i love books very much: i don't read as much as i used to, but i try to read books semi regularly all the same, and i also have many many opinions about beta reading and copyediting/proofreading. i have a lot of fondness for snakes and other reptiles/herps although i have no particular science background, i'm just a nerd. i have too many feelings about bruce springsteen, which might be one of my most quintessential american white people traits. feel free to talk to me about any of these things pretty much whenever!

HOW is it so universal that as soon as you are asked to or try to describe things you like, everything just leaps immediately out of your head!!! i'm tentatively testing out using small text like this as a pseudo tumblr tags section hehe
