Hi, it’s nice to meet you! I'm Ares,
A queer writer & LGBTQ+ and mental health advocate
I'm free-lance writer and thembo, living on the East Coast. They/xe/ey pronouns are fine to use with me.
For as long as I could remember, I have loved stories. They have been an excellent coping mechanism for the tough moments life has hit me with. Though something I did not see much, were people like me.
I am different, by all definitions of who I am. And it is hard to look back and find someone who is like me who does not just fall into the stereotypes. In the first place, I love stories more than anything, and creating worlds and people fills me with overwhelming euphoria. The fact that I am able to write stories showcasing stuff that is stigmatizing against too, just adds to it.
All in all, I am starting this up to share what I want to. I want to share my stories & experiences, talk about mental health, and uplift people; And hopefully, inspire others to do the same. This blog will be a bit of everything, equal personal journey, and storytime. I will create the safe space I needed when I grow up. I am going to talk about everything from my body image especially with body dysphoria, ADHD, life after recovery, and general chaos.
Whenever I am not blogging I am writing, taking care of my precious lizard (Sir Smaug), watching "children's" TV shows, and nap. I'm also a witch who loves making spell candles.
So- I'm queer and you're here. Let's make some magick and have a fun ass time.
If you ever want to work with me, feel free to contact me using my email.
