Name: Frances J., or Meep
Age: 20something
Location: Tokyo, Japan
About Me: I'm a twentysomething queerish girlwoman expatriate librarian-at-arms. I eat books and bleed poetry.
… er, that's what it says on the Twitter account that I admit to at work, but I'm writing this from a mattress on the floor and eating an ice cream in my pajamas on a Friday evening, in between shuffling my new tarot cards and watching trashy movies. (The Twitter account I don't admit to at work is
transpacifique.)
About My Journal: This is where I post any writing worth sharing. (If you're on LJ, my "journal"/diary is
meepalicious.)
What I Write: I write stories for my friends. I love to co-write or share a 'verse and characters, so most of my recent work is collaborative stuff or my half of a story, or my characters' side of something. I like writing about ordinary people caught up in extraordinary circumstances, or extraordinary people trying to live ordinary lives. I like fantasy (high and, especially, urban), historical, contemporary and, yes, romance. I like to write underrepresented queer romances; expect to see a lot of queer women, ménages à trois, gender nonconforming and/or asexual characters.
I'm an active participant in
writerverse, so many of my stories are challenge responses. Sometimes I dabble in
rainbowfic.
I'm starting to dabble in poetry and creative nonfiction.
What I Don't Write: I don't write horror, smut, or hard sci-fi.
What I Read: I'm a children's librarian, so I read a lot of kidlit. Online, I'll read most anything, except for what I don't. (See below.) I like to read (and write) about happy, stable queer relationships, the kind of people I might like to be friends with if I met them, and fuzzy warm feelings.
What I Don't Read: I don't read what I don't write, but I might make an exception for hard sci-fi.
Could I Edit Someone Else's Work: Sure! I'm a bit rusty, but I used to spend hours a day copy and content editing for friends online. I would be happy to be a beta reader and critique partner; that's actually what I'm here for. I mean, I hope we will be friends, but I'd love to meet some creative collaborators!
