~Introduction Post~
Hi, I'm cj
My pseudonym/pen name is Chris Shades (cringe I know but it made sense at the time)
I identify as genderfluid and use any pronouns (including it/its and neos, I'm chill with pretty much whatever, not a huge fan of she/her but don't mind it all that much either)
🩷🤍💜🖤💙
At the time of this post, I'm 18 and in my freshman year of college as an english major
I hope to be a writer, whether it be books, poetry, songs, shows- you name it, I just love to tell a good story
I'm queer (somewhere under the bi umbrella, maybe on the a-spec, and as mentioned above, genderfluid) and neurodivergent (AuDHD and possibly some other things I haven't quite figured out yet), so homophobia, transphobia, ableism, etc. will not be tolerated here
Things I'll probably post about here:
*My writing (obviously)*
**Music**
Art of various forms
Personal stories/experiences/musings
Photography- if I ever get a good camera :')
Dreams/goals
Whatever my current hyperfixation/special interest is (usually fandom-related)
Mental health, psychology, neurodiversity, etc.
✨️Aesthetics✨️
And I'd totally love to discuss/answer questions about any of those topics!
I'm also very interested in history, mythology, space, animals, theatre, and travel
*For the most part, I intend to use this blog to post fanfics, poetry, songs, and pieces of the multiple book series I have in the works
I look forward to sharing my stories with you all, but I do ask that you engage with my work in a respectful and considerate manner. If you don't like something, obviously you don't have to read it; constructive criticism is welcome and even encouraged but don't just hate-comment bc I do tend to take things very personally, and please don't ever repost without credit or use my work without permission as I do hope to eventually publish some of this stuff
(Also, I absolutely love talking about my OCs and the worlds they inhabit, so please please please don't hesitate to ask me about them)*
**I cannot for the life of me recognize or comprehend the genres and I may not be familiar with every single song or artist but I live and breathe music, I love to sing, I'm listening to music in my earbuds almost 24/7, I really want to learn an instrument (planning to start working on guitar this summer) and maybe even be in a band someday, and I'm always happy to give or receive song/artist recommendations or share specially curated playlists (including OC/series based playlists) if anyone's interested**
Fun facts:
I have a little sister and three dogs
I love the rain
I want to learn sign language
I was in a horrendous production of Alice in my senior year of high school (I played the caterpillar)
I absolutely cannot settle on an aesthetic; I love so many of them so much, so my style is kind of all over the place
I have an awful, stupid sense of humor (think dad jokes, corny puns, etc.)
