hello friend!




do you:

• love building cool new worlds to explore with someone else?
• like writing queer or platonic relationships?
• enjoy collaboration and communication?
• prefer a casual, low-pressure posting schedule?
• have a thing for adventure, character development, and wacky genre-bending hijinks?

boy do i have the bird for you!



i'm 25, in canada, and living the minimum wage grind in EST time. i lift heavy stuff for fun and studied rocks in university. one time i got into an argument with an apple sales rep because i tried to tell him that the concentrated acid solution that melted part of my cellphone didn't count as water damage. i did calculations and everything! he was not convinced.

i like to write genre fiction: mostly science fiction or low fantasy, maybe with some noir, horror elements, or espionage thrown in for fun. inventive, unusual settings always pique my interest -- medieval grimdark european fantasy or weirdly rapey and libertarian wonderland dystopias less so.

i'm comfortable writing just about any amount of sex and violence, but don't enjoy plots whose sole purpose is one or the other. my only real line in the sand is plots that center around abusive relationships or rape.

other than that, the sky's really the limit! i'll write just about any gender or orientation and enjoy exploring all sorts of relationships, including platonic ones -- though i'll be honest and say that it's going to take a terribly compelling plot to convince me to write a straight romance.

hit me up at esfirasorokina [at] gmail.com, or bird#9799 on discord if you're interested! you can find my writing all over barbermonger, which is my roleplaying medium of choice.

how about some bread crumbs though

• feudal space politics and conspiracy
• early 1900s russia, slavic mythology
• this wacky fantasy venice espionage meets devil wears prada thing
• numenara-esque technowizardry
• failed space colonies, ancient AIs and scavengers
• transhumanist body horror blues

more breadcrumbs:

• fantasy kitchen sink (a la adventure zone)
• grimy intra-solar system space opera - space trash collectors, asteroid miners, maybe space pirates?
• solar sailing, cheesy pod racing
• cold war espionage, more john le carre than ian fleming
• noir, maybe with fantastical elements
• low fantasy and horror in the age of sail

all full up on threads at the moment! <3
