Queer short film producer and a writer interested in Gynaehorror, Representation in Film, and Feminine Bodily Function in Film. If the gothic is involved, I'm even more excited. (She/her)
Just graduated - wrote my dissertation on Prevenge and Yummy Mummy.

Just finished reading Kiersten White's fantastic Lucy Undying. If you're a fan of Dracula, Vampires, Lesbians, Gothic, and awesomely cathartic revenge, I'd highly advise. Some really interesting points about bodily autonomy here, as well as Lucy actually getting to be more than an ill victim.

Feels like a good day to repost our list of 12 trans characters in video games from across the ages. Trans & NB people exist, they cannot be erased with a scribble of a pen. #translivesmatter

Anyone else really bothered that they didn't put 'sexual assault' as a content warning for #nosferatu ? Saw it on the cinema and was totally caught unprepared (always nasty). The film is so clear about both its literal sexual assault and it's seriously implied sexual assault.

Did you know that Black Christmas was one of the first films to feature a killer who targets victims through the phone? It pioneered the 'phone caller' trope in horror, making every ring chilling. #HorrorFacts #BlackChristmas #HorrorFamily #HorrorMovies #Christmas2024

Finally caught up with THE SUBSTANCE. Everyone told me it was mind bending body horror, but no in told me it was this decade’s SORRY TO BOTHER YOU. Biting, bitter satire built on a series of sad, core truths about our society. A freakishly good horror nightmare. It’s on MUBI and for rental in VOD.

Did a Q&A lecture at my old uni to chat about dissertations and thought no one would be interested in Gynaehorror, but there was ONE! A lovely student who I chat with and who is experiencing the same surprise I had at the fact that there is only really one author (Harrington) who writes about it

It's transgender day of remembrance today and we've lost 309+ siblings in the past year to violence, and an additional 47+ to suicide*.
Every single one had hopes, dreams, talents, fears, a family (chosen or otherwise). They deserved better.

Ex-librarian here—I'd say encouraging your followers to put in requests for books with marginalized authors/MCs and check out those books both in person and online would be best. To get books and keep them on shelves in times of scrutiny like this, there has to be a quantifiable demand for them.
I'm not uniquely qualified for anything but as book bans will become stricter on stories of the marginalized in the coming years I want to ask librarians if there is anything I can personally do with my small platform to help out

The secret is that other writers aren't competition; they're peers, colleagues and friends. Someone who reads me is going to read other writers as well; the entire publishing economy is "yes, and." Therefore it does me no harm, and much good, to support other writers and to wish them well.
And Heinlein would have approved! Terry Pratchett said, "Most SF writers were once fans. There's a habit they have, not of paying back, but of paying forward; I know of no other branch of literature where the established "names" so keenly encourage wannabe writers to become their future competitors

Read this essay book earlier this week - a really intriguing read and lots of food-for-thought which has been making my brain twitch for DAYS. Would recommend (only 130ish pages, so a quick read, too)
