Intro

Hi! I'm Shane, a plural, disabled enby author of dark, queer speculative fiction & poetry. I go by they/them. I'm also AuDHD ♾️ I am a wheelchair user ♿

I often touch upon mental health in my stories. Mental Health Awareness is very important to me as well as being visible. I have several mental illnesses myself. I'm also plural.

My characters are queer and messy, and some are my actual headmates.

I'm also an artist and I make YouTube videos.

I am an adult in my 30s and my books include mature content, so minors please DNI.

[-Not Really- Kickstarter] - Thorn for the Villain, an Otome Isekai OTOME Game

I just realized that I've never posted this... But, in case that you are unaware, I'm currently developing an ~otome isekai~ otome game, Thorn for the Villain ~Reincarnated as an Extra in an Otome Game?!~ As posted, I am actually running a -not really- Kickstarter campaign for it; it's not on Kickstarter, but it is a Kickstarter-esque campaign on Itchio and Ko-Fi, wherein your donations will receive special perks such as early beta access (which, by the way, may be running out...), discounted full game access (once fully released) or even a chance to have your OC cameo in a background as a poster. FYI, the Early Bird Discounts are all out For questions and more details, you may check out the FAQs here.

Canvas of Scars is a collection of dark poetry, short prose, and art by a trans masc author with themes of PTSD, psychosis, and other dark subjects. It's my first art/poetry collection, and it's my own story of what I survived and the art that helped me cope 🖤 Everything was illustrated by me, and I did the interior design as well. I'm so proud of this thing 😍

You can grab it here.

Here's another art piece featured in it:

Visit Shane Blackheart's Shop!

I've opened a shop. Come take a look!

Just a little reminder that I sell all of my books on Kofi, where I get paid directly. My books are the only way I have to supplement my disability income, so any purchases go toward food 💜

It's nearing the end of the month soon, so it's when I need these sales the most.

Aww, JRPG characters still find time to flirt while a demon king is revived to destroy all life ❤️

“Tomorrow, LGBTQ+ youth can no longer contact 988 to be connected with a counselor trained in providing LGBTQ-specific crisis care.

Devastatingly, this program that has served 1.5 million LGBTQ+ youth across the U.S. will close.

But LGBTQ+ young people still have resources to turn to.”

You can still reach them

a thick layer of fog doused the entire north-side yesterday, haunting in its beauty.

Alright I will say it now bc I have not seen anyone acknowledge this even once:

I love Astarion's undereye circles.

I love that he's considered immensly beautiful and handsome by literally everyone in game as well as most people outside of it despite having these rather prominent "flaws" right on his face.

As someone who is also very pale and has genetically dark undereye circles, who constantly had to hear stuff like "Did you not sleep? Are you sick?? You look soooo tired/sick" which ultimately took a massive hit on my already low self-esteem, someone who tried every possible beauty hack to get rid of them or cover them up, it is so SO refreshing to have a character for fucking once that not only has those same dark circles but is also still considered beautiful, entrancingly so even.

Anyways, I love Astarion's undereye circles.
