See, that’s what the app is perfect for.

Sounds perfect Wahhhh, I don’t wanna

Howdy, I’m unforth, afab agender (any pronouns), aroace, queer, 43 years old, mother of two, queer-married to @ramblingandpie. I’m white, Jewish, atheist, and I live in New York, USA. I’m mostly known as a fanfiction author I guess? I’m pro-ship and pro-kink - which really is to say I’m anti-censorship - though there’s plenty I personally won’t read…I mostly read sappy shortform fluff, tbh. My primary fandoms are Supernatural, MXTX stuff, things with Zhu Yilong in them (esp Guardian and Daomu Biji), things by Priest, whatever danmei books I’ve found time to read, and danmei manhua I can devour on the Bilibili app…and a splash of LOTS of other fandoms (Star Trek, Star Wars, MCU, Yuri on Ice, The Witcher, Wheel of Time, Check Please, One Piece, and Slayers, to name a few). I tag everything, so if you stick around, just blacklist all the stuff that doesn’t interest you. I love art and fibercraft. Fuck TERFs. BLM.

Master post of c-drama and danmei media I have, am currently, or intend to consume in the future. and by consume I mean devour. nomnomnom. This post lists what I’m currently watching and reading, what I have read, what I want to read, and it has loads of links. idk if it’ll be useful to anyone but at least it helps me remember?

List of Fandoms I’ll Write For (give or take a few….currently VERY out of date, oops)

Other things I do:

I think that’s everything current, but I’ve done lots of other stuff over the years…I’ve been in online fandoms since 1994, so I’ve been around the block about a bajillion times.

I don’t usually follow back because I get overwhelmed easily, but if you want to be friends, just start talking to me, and I’ll respond, and if we end up friends I will follow - basically everyone I follow is a mutual, and a friend.

Don’t be a stranger, and I look forward to getting to know ya’ll!

Personal Update from the Owner of Duck Prints Press

Hey everyone! I’m Claire (aka @unforth , aka Nina Waters) and I wanted to let you all know that I am having surgery on July 1st. It’s a good thing, and it’s surgery I both need and want – while it is because a health issue was found, it’s also gender-affirming for me.

As a result of this surgery, I will not be working at all on July 1st or 2nd, and I will be working as little as possible through July 7th. I expect to then be on a light schedule to the extent possible (which isn’t a very big extent, as I will be attending Readercon in Massachusetts from the 9th to the 12th).

During this time, I would appreciate everyone’s patience, as I will be much slower to reply to communication, delayed on fulfilling physical orders from our webstore, and generally much less available than I usually am.

Thank you all for understanding!

unforth rambles so im having surgery in a few days yeeterus! begone foul organ@

we need to periodically remind everyone that a headline not including a person's name isn't an attempt to erase their identity from the narrative, it's just not good practice to put someone's name in a headline unless the reader can be expected to already know who they are

hbmmaster

"if you can say the name in the article why can't you say the name in the headline?" what do you think a headline is for

random yeah i think about this all the time people have no idea how headlines are written

Cover Reveal: WILD AND FULL OF MARVELS!

The cover of a book entitled Wild and Full of Marvels: Queer Fanworks Inspired by Folklore and Fairy Tales. It features an elaborate, fantasy-sinpired border in shades of blue and green, with fairies lifting a gauzy veil to reveal a fantasy scene below of a white mermaid with blonde hair drawing her hair back to reveal her bare torso and curve of her back, which segues into a pink-purple mermaid tail. In the foreground is a slim, muscular darker-skinned woman with long black hair in a braid held back by a bandana. She wears simple clothes and stands knee-deep in the water, and is pulling on a rope as if to tow in something not in view. Her gaze meets that of the mermaid, who raises a hand with webs between the fingers in an inviting beckon.ALT

We are beyond thrilled to share the cover art that artist Jinx Inks has done for our next anthology, Wild and Full of Marvels: Queer Fanworks Inspired by Folklore and Fairy Tales.

This all-new collection, fourth in our Queer Fanworks Inspired By… series, features 23 stories, 23 art pieces, and a 10-page comic, all inspired by folklore, fairy tales, myths, and legends with personal significance to the creator. Teasers, excerpts, and trims of the art pieces will be shared throughout our Kickstarter campaign. Check out the contributor list and read their biographies!

We’re also offering some awesome merchandise, all featuring art by the anthology contributors. We’ll be sharing reveals for these pieces over the next couple weeks as we lead up to our upcoming campaign launch.

Follow our pre-launch page on Kickstarter to be among the first to hear when our campaign goes live on July 8th 2026!

By the way, the full cover is wrap-around…

Wrap-around cover art for the anthology Wild and Full of Marvels. The back-cover section features a blue border of fantasy elements, encircling a merperson's tail wrapped in a fisher's net emerging from the water. There is room for text at the top, but no text currently. The spine features a hand lifting a wand and is otherwise blank. The front cover has an elaborate border in blue, showing fairies lifting gauzy curtains to reveal the scene beneath, a white mermaid with webbed fingers lifting her hair to show her bare back and purple-pink tail as she sits on a rock; in the foreground, a medium-skin-toned fisherwoman with black hair held back by a bandana pulls her net while meeting the gaze of the mermaid.ALT
ITS. SO. SHINY.
