About me
I'm Lux. '93. Queer (bisexual, genderqueer), any pronouns ok.Fantasy writer, fiction addict, shipper. Always tackling a giant pile of WIPs. RP-er. Pro-shipper, anti-censorship. In fandom spaces since the early 2000s. Metalhead. Rants 10 times a day on average. No filter mouth. Sleepless hermit.I write mostly original fiction, but also fanfiction, lyrics and poetry. I also dabble in translation, various crafts, and music and video editing.Tweets and RTs mostly related to queer fantasy literature and danmei. Occasionally music and other fandoms. Can and will get involved in fandom discourse.NSFW will appear on my Twitter, do not follow if you are a minor or you're unwilling to view NSFW content.I block for anti takes, supporting censorship of art, extreme cases of bad reading, and blatant lack of understanding of fandom etiquette. Or for whatever the hell I please at a given moment.
