Hello frens, I'm thenerdnextdoor.

I'm a 24-year-old Scottish queer woman (she/her) with a tendency to obsess over fictional worlds until I write about them to get them out of my system. This usually happens with multiple worlds at a time, which means I can be distracted very easily and end up neglecting stories (looking at you, Emberling, sorry).

I've set up a tumblr account where you can find updates on stories etc: the-nerdnextdoor

You can also find me on Ao3 under thenerdnextdoor.

Of Fragile Souls reviews
