Gils and Fur
Mermaids and werewolves. What do these two things have in common? Nothing much, really. They’re both popular in fantasy genre. Though werewolves have been more heavily featured in horror movies. Thanks to the various stories that have featured them killing and eating human beings. Our innate fear of what we do not understand.

My Waistband and MeTop Story - April 2024
Ever since I was little, I have never really liked my body. Well, when I was with other kids, I started to dislike myself. My body hadn’t bothered me until the other kids pointed out ‘flaws’. Stuff that they perceived as wrong.

The Emerald Problem
Before him sat the radio system. The buttons on it flashing in quick succession as he watched them. How long had it been since he spoke to another person? Just how long had it really been? Elliot wasn’t entirely sure anymore. But it didn’t matter. After all, he wasn’t lonely. Why in the entire world would he need to speak to anyone else for? At least that’s what he kept telling himself. That he wasn’t the least bit lonely.

Telling My Mother
Coming out as a trans-man was the scariest, hardest, and freeing thing I could do. I haven't come out to everyone in my life. But I came out to the people who matter the most to me. My Mother, some of my friends, and my younger brother. Who isn't all that supportive of me but, that's for another story. Once I get the idea of how to properly put it down in words. As the whole tale is complicated. Mostly thanks to the story between the both of us and how we relate to each other.

Worrying Over YouTop Story - March 2024
There were times that Lucian really wanted to smack his husband upside the head. Now was one of those times. Since Lucian had gotten pregnant over a month ago, a process that halted his transition for the next nine months, his husband had been overdoing things. Mostly household chores. Taking him to every single appointment, which was lovely but he can still drive himself.

Growing Up Spooky
Growing up, horror has always been an escape for me. Ever since I was twelve, maybe thirteen years old growing up in the Midwest. I found it when my mom was divorcing her ex-husband and clung to it like a life preserver. Like it was the only thing to keep me grounded during those awful days. Movies, books, comic books, anything that I could possibly get my hands on I did. I read and watched anything to escape the shit going on in my life.

Winslow Woods
We are the Winslow Woods. And we have been here for more years than we have really been bothered to count. During this time, we have seen hundreds of creatures come through. Animals that live here along with humans that briefly pass through. Sometimes taking pieces of us to use for either shelter, firewood, or other things. None of which really bothered us in the slightest bit. It just how things are.

A Loving Dragoness
My Mom had me when she was nineteen years old. A little too young to be having a child now that I think about it. She had a lot more growing up to do and having a baby didn’t really help. Neither did having two more of them. My younger brothers, Trevor and Andre. Marrying my baby brother’s sperm donor out of some obligation to give us a father-figure.

Horror of QueernessTop Story - February 2024
Pride was for other people when I was younger. Living in the Midwest didn’t really give me a lot of insight into what queerness is. Despite having a bisexual mother and trans neighbor I had no honest idea what it was. There were a ton of examples of it growing up. Both problematic and I suppose as unproblematic as they could be at that time.
