alis
@alis@alis.meI’m an Australian fan of books, monsters, and books about monsters. Sometimes I even write them myself, and am the author of https://alisfranklin.com/book/liesmith/, https://alisfranklin.com/book/stormbringer/, https://alisfranklin.com/book/dragon-of-rosemont-high/, and the editor of the monstrous https://alisfranklin.com/book/uo/ anthology.
When I’m not doing that, I also occasionally code, blog, review books by other people, and make bad art.
As a terminally online fan of the old web, I can also be found on Dreamwidth, followed via RSS, or federated via @alis@alis.me
