Lots of new followers this week, so here's a brief bio thinger which I will pin.

I'm Australian, I'm queer, I write short stories and audio drama and I play videogames. That's basically it. If you want to see the things I do it's all here: linktr.ee/imogencassid...

I have to say I don't do accents but getting to do VOICES is so much fun for me. Riding the high of being able to voice a deeply weird NPC for my MoTW folks today. Yes he's going to be a recurring character forever now.

Imogen Cassidy @imogenwrites.bsky.social · 1d

IT WENT GREAT. God I'm so much better at GMing MoTW than DnD. Thank christ for a two die system that's investigation based.

Never been more satisfied with the ending of a movie as I was with Snowpiercer actually. That ending felt RIGHT.

Today's conceptual earworm:

When 'ordinary schoolboy' Eric ate a banana, he turned into Bananaman, an adult. This was in the early-to-mid 80s. I'd estimate him to have been around 10.

He would now be in his 50s. If he eats a banana, he will turn into a geriatric banana person.

I hear its #PortfolioDay! I'm a concept artist and illustrator - I'm currently open for commissions and keen to line up contract/freelance work for next year!

A river scene in the evening, there are lots of cute flowers in the foreground and mist in the distance partly obscuring a pine forest and an ornate castle. there are huge mountains in the distance and a line of starlike things going straight up into the sky. there's a sort of art nouveau-esque border around the whole thing.

page 1 - a man walks through a desert amongst rocky mesas that feature blue striations. his face is sunburnt, he looks rather exhausted, like he's been in this desert for too long already. his fine clothes belie his lack of preparation for this desert.

Underwater. Blues. A woman with glowing eyes and strange giger-esque armour floats deep underwater looking at the viewer. Floating amongst faintly glowing kelp

Very cool, to say the least, to share a ToC with such a stellar list of writers in 'The Year's Best Robot and AI Stories'. Looking forward to getting my author copy.

I know you lived on an island (and in the traditional sense not in the also-a-continent sense I did) so that stuff is FASCINATING. I hate stairs so I would be unsuited to living in a lighthouse but I STILL WANT TO.

Imogen Cassidy @imogenwrites.bsky.social · 3d

A travesty. When I do my next audio drama pitch they will both be in it.

Also Jesus Christ that picture of Sunny Corner looks like something out of a murder serial when we drove through it it was actually lovely. ALSO DARK CORNER WAS ALSO LOVELY.

AND ALSO

THEY BOTH EXIST.
