there are copious amounts of picrews, but they seem hard to come by without scouring or coming across them in the wild so i've amassed a decent collection over time. i may add more when i run into others.
please enjoy. and add more to the list if you wish.
I know I just did this back in November when I reset but I've since changed my name and pronouns and wanted to re-up a few things lmao.
I'm Aki. I'm transgender and use he/him pronouns exclusively. I'm older than 30 and my bones let me know every single day. I currently live in the United States and masquerade as the gods favorite chew-toy. Sunshiney (but sometimes feral) cat coded.
I have a degree in English Professional writing which basically just taught me a variety of rules and how exactly to tell those same rules to 'fuck off'.
I write and read a multitude of different genres, but usually avoid literary fiction. I do however prefer to write very character-driven narratives with characters that fall into the spectrum of different identities (from orientation to gender to illness/disorder).
You can find my WIPs list on my pinned & read a little more about me on my about page. My non-writing hobbies include video gaming, learning languages, painting, photoshop, and beading.
I'm very ask and tag game friendly, though sometimes I will not always get to them as I sometimes disappear for long periods from this blog. Don't hesitate to interact with me. Feel free to like, comment, or reblog this post to let me know about your own existence. I'd love more folks to follow and interact with on here ^^

Hiii :D I might sound like an idiot, but I can't figure out if your name here is meant to be 'Aki to writes' or 'Akito writes' TvT
I apologize for taking 5 million years to get back to this blog so I don't even know if you will get the chance to see this answer, but honestly it can be a little bit of both LMAO but don't feel like an idiot, it's just a silly little name thing ^^
originally my penname was "Rook" and I was often called "Rookito" to include the diminutive suffix from Spanish (-ito) for endearment reasons. When I changed my name to "Aki" and realized I needed to change my url, I found that 'akiwrites' was already taken so i just kept the suffix for fun. So in technicality it is supposed to be "Akito writes"
however. since Aki is as a Japanese given name, looking at it from the idea of adding the particle "to" (と) to my name with the word 'writes' makes it sound like "Aki and/with Writes" which is pretty on par for the blog itself too LMAO - either way you could be right but your last was my original intention ^^
Alright. I updated everything and added an about page :3
I'm going to try to be a little more active here, just periodically checking in at least. I miss working on my personal stuff, as much as I love fanfic too.

Happy Storyteller Saturday! What is OC-of-your-choice's favourite season and why?
Oh thank you so much for sending me a question!! I'm actually going to give two difference OCs favorites because they both piped up at the same time lmao
Corva, the MC from Shadows of Dawn, loves autumn the most because it's a very spiritual time for her. Especially the closer you get to the equinox, it's a time that she feels stronger and more herself, though she never really realizes it's because her magic is stronger during this time.
Ravid, the MC from Beyond Stardust loves winter the most. This is partially because winter is the "calm season" on his planet, following the storm season that's associated with "autumn". Winter is a time of recovery which is an inherent theme in Ravid's journey.

This is the first line from Darwin's Cliff...
The last stubborn leaves clung desperately to the trees against tearing November winds when Darwin Eaves arrived home for the first time in almost a decade.
Tagging @firesidefantasy, @reininginthefirewriting and @rookitowrites if you'd like to do it, with an open tag for anyone else who wants to share a first line 🧡
Reblogs, replies etc on my tag posts are always welcome, but if you're doing this tag yourself, please make your own post instead of using mine to start a reblog chain.
Some thoughts and feelings have overgrown quite a bit in my head. It gets a little suffocating sometimes. While I love them dearly, I think they might benefit from a little trim every once in a while.
