Hi, I'm Ritzy 👋🏽 I love reading, and my fave genres are crime fiction, adventure fantasy and romance. I have an eclectic mix of interests but this blog is primarily dedicated to art, photography and writing, occasionally including nsfw/sexually explicit content. I am a firm believer in engaging critically with media, including with unsavoury and 'problematic' works, and do not believe in moral policing over fiction. Come say hi if you like!

I also write fanfic on occasion:

i am feeling so incredibly unhinged that i have decided to write an original novel that will be the most trope-y fake dating romcom i can envision

Bloodbending. This is a clear AU. Katara has already grown up here, and she is not so kind to the  Fire Nation. I think this is a world in which Aang has never been found. It’s all very grim, actually

Queering the Map is a community generated counter-mapping platform for digitally archiving LGBTQ2IA+ experience in relation to physical space.

The platform provides an interface to collaboratively record the cartography of queer life—from park benches to the middle of the ocean—in order to preserve our histories and unfolding realities, which continue to be invalidated, contested, and erased. From collective action to stories of coming out, encounters with violence to moments of rapturous love, Queering the Map functions as a living archive of queer life.

Through mapping LGBTQ2IA+ experience in its intersectional permutations, the project works to generate affinities across difference and beyond borders — revealing the ways in which we are intimately connected.

HAROLD PERRINEAU as Mercutio | ROMEO + JULIET

[artist-ellen]

And for our Grand Finale of 2025's historical mermaids, the much requested: Iara, of Brazil.

In Tupi mythology there is a mermaid-like myth. A young woman named Iara is drowned, but returns as a half-fish maid known for drowning river-goers in retribution.????

THIS MERMAID IS NOT IN THE mermaid colouring book! She's brand-new in comparison to the other mermaids in this series.

There are also PDF copies available!
