author introduction
ABOUT ME
☆ I go by Apple (she/they) though in the past have gone by Iris.
☆ Am in my very late 20s; Filipino (Southeast Asian); neurodivergent; demi & bi.
☆ I write speculative fiction almost exclusively: that means high and low fantasy, soft and hard sci-fi. I’m also trying to embrace the inner romance writer I left behind in my childhood.
☆ I was active on writeblr ‘round late 2019 as irisjaye. ^^ There was no drama or fixed reason for disappearing - my clinical inattentiveness just did its thing.
☆ I am back and testing the waters with writeblr today because I want to pursue my creative writing dreams a lot more seriously. And that includes finding + building community.
☆ I also frequent Twitter and Discord. I co-moderate a very small server for ADHD writers and enjoy impulsively joining servers 😛
ABOUT THIS BLOG
☆ My goal this time is to focus on writing output: be it worldbuilding, excerpts, artwork, story meta, productivity updates, and so on. That means fewer posts that are plain advice, inspiration, prompts, pegs.
☆ I would however love to reblog fellow writers’ writing output, not just my own ^^
☆ With a bias, I would love to support + connect with: * — authors from South, Southeast and Southwest Asia * — neurodivergent and chronically ill authors * — authors writing wlw and nonbinary characters <3 * — authors in their 20s or older! I’m near my 30s and it’s not easy to find writers in my age bracket anymore.
☆ My asks and DMs are open indefinitely. I’m not a speedy replier but I’m very friendly, love sending emotional support, and have been told I exhibit mom or big sister behavior 🥴
☆ Don’t hesitate to say hi 🙋♀️
PROJECT INDEX
Could Have Been Stardust: A science fantasy fiction novel that is my main writing project as of August 2022.

For Future Fiction: A sideblog I carried over from my old account. I reblog interesting images of natural locations, architecture, fashion, faces, creatures, objects, useful for visual placeholders for things you want to describe in writing, or general-purpose visual prompts if you’re coming from a blank page.
