hello writers :3 once upon a time i dipped my toes in the writeblr waters as 'wordsbynathan,' and after taking an accidental multi-year break i am back and re-introducing myself! in my absence i started streaming on twitch (though i am currently on hiatus to focus on writing lol) under the name SometimesNat; that's come to feel like the most natural way to 'brand' my online identity, so i'm adopting the name here as well!
about me
as implied, i sometimes go by nat or otherwise by nathan! 27 years old, writer, streamer, walker, currently hyperfixating on magic the gathering. my pronouns are they/them and he/him with a slight preference toward the former until we are at least somewhat acquainted <3 i love music and movies and gaming and long naps and space and cats (sorry i'm a millennial on my mom's side). and i live in the US...unfortunately...
my writing
anybody who has spoken to me has heard about burned, my years-in-the-making fantasy WIP that i've written and rewritten more times than the bible has been translated. i'm currently working through the FINAL (so help me) version of burned to be queried. burned is about a superhuman who is essentially kidnapped from his normal life and thrown into a magical college where everybody lowkey hates him. there, he starts to pick apart the mystery of his mother's untimely death. he is very normal about all of it! i have another fantasy/sf novel called antisocial angels alliance which is a little bit stranger things, a little bit degrassi, and VERY gay. currently in the revision stage, i have been ignoring her for Some Time but will hopefully have a polished version finished by the end of this year. AAA is about a group of teenagers who have been genetically engineered by a religious cult to become god warriors for the military. they are super normal about all of it!! finally, on the backburner is a horror novel that is for the moment called dust bunny. an mfa student falls in love with his thesis advisor, but as he continues to write his thesis he feels something strange brewing in his body. the more he writes, the weirder shit gets and the looser his grip on reality becomes. as you can guess, he's incredibly normal about all of it!!!
and that's all for the moment! it's gonna take me some time to get back into the swing of things on tumblr, fix my blog theme, reconstruct a tagging system and all of that, but until then i'm just very happy to be back in the writing headspace after a Very Bad writing year in 2024 :)
