Hey all! I’m new here – been writing fairly seriously for about a decade and been wading slowly into the publishing world more recently. Would love to get to know any other writers hanging out around here – what do you write and what are you working on?
I write a lot of fantasy/speculative, though I also do some short work in the space of memoir and CNF. Currently working on a novel about a girl whose voice is death.
Anyway, introduce yourselves! I’d love to see any stories you might be up for sharing!
My work straddles the dividing line between fiction and nonfiction - I translate old German folk tales into English.
The “creative writing” aspect is in the commentary - these tales were told in a context that is very different from what a modern audience is used to, and thus I need to explain the cultural, geographical, and historical nuances to my readers.
