I write stories, dialogue and design narrative for games and comics and am currently working on building some queer games in India.

#PrideMonth may be over, but it would be great to see other #Queer #IndieDevs from #India add to this amazing list!

@CTerryObserver Is there a specific pitch format you are looking for? Or would a 200-300 word brief work?

Here's a recap of our #tweetchat with @HinaQui on the "Intersection of Neurodivergence and Queerness."

@soumya__mishra @TheSafecityApp @elsamariedsilva @RinkiSharma Whenever you explain what a Twitter Space is to me... I'll be onboard!

[Hina Sid | Queer Storytelling for the Future @HinaQui]

Whew! All done then! Though if anyone has comments, questions or would like to compare notes... come find me! Thank you @soumya__mishra @TheSafecityApp @elsamariedsilva for making this happen! And @RinkiSharma for keeping those questions coming!

[Hina Sid | Queer Storytelling for the Future @HinaQui]

@soumya__mishra @TheSafecityApp @supreetksingh @elsamariedsilva Yay! Go team!

[Hina Sid | Queer Storytelling for the Future @HinaQui]

@soumya__mishra @TheSafecityApp @supreetksingh @elsamariedsilva And lastly, going back to what queerness means, like actual queer theory, talks about systems and societies outside binaries and heteronormative performativity. And that's the kind of logic my autistic brain can get behind.

[Hina Sid | Queer Storytelling for the Future @HinaQui]

@soumya__mishra @TheSafecityApp @supreetksingh @elsamariedsilva Also, statistically, the representation of autistic/neurodivergent people in the aroace community is also high. So the association is not completely unfounded. But to use it as the only aspect of identity when talking about neurodivergence and queerness is of course problematic.

[Hina Sid | Queer Storytelling for the Future @HinaQui]

(7-7) And queering the concepts of romance, love, family and care for me means that when I share this, it does not become a means to other me. That there is no sliding scale of significance - social, cultural or legal - for the kinds of connections we can create and embody.

This one goes to my heart... so you're gonna get my heart in the answer...
(1-7) A6: I am a 36-year-old parent. My children are 28-31 years old. They were all informally adopted during the globally traumatic years of 2020-21.

(6-7) For me, there is no difference in what I feel for all of the creatures mentioned above. I want to cook with them, talk and make stories with them, manage household budgets, cuddle, plan, create and live around them - geographical distance notwithstanding.
