Hello, everyone. Sarah here. This is a blog nominally for writing, but realistically for shitposting with smatterings of fandom.

• Sarah - she/her/he/him - genderfluid - 30s - Scotland

Likes:

• Fantasy, and within that, romance, slice-of-life and adventure. My WIPs range from sword-and-sorcery to magical realism and gothic horror. Somehow all of these WIPs include friends-to-lovers. Weird.
• Historical fiction. I’m a consumer of period drama, a researcher of historical costuming, and European history is one of my special interests.
• Queer stories and characters, especially the kind I would have liked to have seen growing up <3
• Critical Role, as well as an ever-shifting collection of fandoms, arranged like a detailed hierarchy of plushies in a pre-teen’s bedroom. I’m sarahlizzie on AO3.
• Mature content, some of which I post on my blog. If you’re a minor, please consider your follow carefully.
• Tag games/ask games! Or just infodump about your WIPs and OCs in my asks! I love you!

My WIPs:

• Chrissie’s of London - a psychedelic, high-drama adventure set in a magical version of 1920s London, starring a gregarious and irresponsible hotel owner, Silas Chrissie [character intro], his long-suffering accountant, Loretta Cramps [character intro], and his old friend, a French, shape-shifting felon called Jacques [character intro]. An exploration of what it means to be bisexual, queer identity and a love triangle that spans multiple dimensions.

• The Adventures of Sitora Lux - This is an expanded and editorialized retelling of a former D&D character who I felt like didn’t get a fair enough shout in the game. Sitora is a big lesbian Paladin-to-be who is still figuring stuff out as she attends an academy for training up future peacekeepers of the realm. A high fantasy coming-of-age/romance with some mystery and drama thrown in, spread over 5 books. Currently editing book 1, currently writing book 2. Have a character intro for Sitora! feat: lovely art from @rosieartsie.
• I also use the tag ‘Sitoraverse’ for posting about the expanded world of Mithlonde

• Grey-Sky Lark - my distraction project. Based on the mind-worm of 'Hebridean Vampire’, I started writing a deeply introspective, totally first-person series of vignettes/short stories about my (unnamed) vampire protagonist as fate takes him on the winds and currents of history and the North Atlantic. The story starts in 9th century Faroe Islands as they are being colonized by the Norse and goes through to modern day. At the moment I’m working on the late-Victorian/Edwardian section where he is tasked with tracking down another vampire.

• Brazen Sparrow - an age-of-sail romance, featuring a sapphic navy captain/pirate enemies-to-lovers storyline. Expect maps for this one!
• Til Death Do Us Part - my NaNoWriMo 2023 project. A whodunnit set in 1937 featuring the groom being killed at his wedding. I use the tag 'crime fighting husbands’ to refer to this and its sequels!
• The Ruby of Ranpur - aforementioned sequel and the continued adventures of the crime fighting husbands. My UnNoWriCh 2024 project.

If any of these sound good to you, sign up for my taglist!
