Hello! Welcome to my page.
I'm a 30 something aro/ace writer who's been writing since high school. I cut my teeth on fanfiction starting at age of 12 and still love to write it on the side (AnOctoberPepper on other sites as well). I moved to original fiction in late high school/college. I especially loves stories about siblings, cults, and magic woven into SciFi. I write in my free time from the idilic foothills of the Appalachian mountains.
I am especially passionate about writing stories that accurately (albeit usually ensconced in Science Fiction) portrey mental health conditions. I want to see more stories that don't show people with schizophrenia/bipolar (or both because schizoaffective disorder is very fun, y'all) as dangerous, or as a special *shocking* plot device.
I am a sister, dog mom, and "favorite" aunt to four amazing nibblets.
