I’m an Australian fan of books, monsters, and books about monsters. Sometimes I even write them myself, and am the author of Liesmith, Stormbringer, The Dragon of Rosemont High, and the editor of the monstrous Unnatural Order 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. I'm elsewhere on fedi as @alis@fandom.ink, @alis@cryptid.house and @askalis@bookwyrm.social.

In my spare time, I’m probably playing far too much Final Fantasy XIV. If you’re feeling up for a chat, I’m also on Discord.
