I've not really used Twitter (or X) that much, and I'm gradually moving away from it due to reasons everyone is likely aware of. You can find me on Bluesky at https://t.co/BeaR2NVcGa where I'll try to do something more with it.

The world of Aeldynn has plenty of strong female characters. Not all of them are fully established yet, but there quite a few, and with different kinds of strength.

That's been my dream from the beginning. I've been told by some that I've done this for them, which makes me glad. I just hope I do that for others too.

Not sure what's happening with Twitter, and I've not been all that active here. You can find me on Facebook/Instagram under the same @ handle, & I have a reader group called The Gateway to Aeldynn Lore.

Well, I have first hand experience in a few things, such as martial arts and tall ship sailing, but for everything else there's Google (and research textbooks). 😅

I also missed #asexual awareness week on here, as I've not used Twitter much in a while. Better late than never. Stay cool my fellow aces.

So, I totally forgot to post this here on Halloween. It's still kind of spooky season though, right?
