The Grammar of Ghosts

hi dreamwidth! i'm new.

my name is mars. i'm 26, queer, and spend my free time reading.

i'm a writer, but not fanfiction! i write originals. speculative fiction and everything that falls under that umbrella: i have a secondary high fantasy world but recently i'm doing a lot of modern fantasy stuff set in the state I live in, Maine. ghosts, blood magic, lovecraftian bogeys. i just finished a serial novella called NEWICHAWANNOCK that i'll be posting here and there. its stranger things + IT + lgbtq+ with a river monster and a kid with a broken golden heart.

i do buttery soft scifi, too, and sometimes my fantasy dips into horror.

but right now i'm working on another ghost story novella, FORSAKEN, featuring time travel, abandoned houses, rituals, and the powers of family.

i write poetry too, i'm @mars_writes on instagram. recently i've been dabbling with n-gram generators and collage. may post some of that.

so i hope i can connect with some other original writers or fanfic writers or just cool + weird + interesting folks :)
