edit data

Jess' weird fish-out-of-water life has left her with enduring love/affair with common tropes. The relationship counselor recommended she break it off, but she just keeps coming back to play with them (and fuck them up) some more.

In between her tropic indulgences, she writes queer fantasy with aromantic, neurodivergent, and generally 'weird' characters, takes care of her family, argues halakha, and tries to do a bit of educational activism on the side.

Her website 'A Gryphon's Aerie' updates semi regularly, and she's active on Mastadon, Tumblr and a few other spots around the web.

Feb 24 Week in Review

Don’t have much to say this week. Still in burnout, slow recovery. But wanted to try to make a commitment for next week. I didn’t make any commitments last week, but did get some weaving done, a bit of nonfic reading (Trachtenberg again, I’m a bit over half-way through), and a few other things. So… Continue reading Feb 24 Week in Review →

Jess’s Quotes

“We live for books.”
― Umberto Eco

“Fiction is a kind of compassion-generating machine that saves us from sloth. Is life kind or cruel? Yes, Literature answers. Are people good or bad? You bet, says Literature. But unlike other systems of knowing, Literature declines to eradicate one truth in favor of another; rather, it teaches us to abide with the fact that, in their own way, all things are true, and helps us, in the face of this terrifying knowledge, continually push ourselves in the direction of Open the Hell Up.”
― George Saunders
