some kind of gay boat festival

My Dreamwidth profile contains: a brief intro, as well as subscribing, commenting and linking policies. The origin of my username is explained here. If you click around the snowflake-sunshine challenge tag, you'll find various bios, lists of my favourite fic, etc.

My Archive of Our Own profile and Dreamwidth mirror feast_of_fanfic both contain: content note, feedback and transformative works policies. The vast majority of my fan fiction is located on AO3, but feast_of_fanfic has some shorter works I haven't crossposted.

Fanwork recs may be found on my By Me: Recs tag. Book reviews may be found on the Fandom: Other Books tag as well as the Fandom: Queer Books tag, if there's more than one book reviewed in a post, the queer content is marked with a rainbow heart sticker ().

The rest of my tagging isn't terribly consistent, but the search box may help find things.

As I'm largely bad at tagging meta as such, I've put together a list of (mostly recent) meta that I've written and feel turned out well.
