Riot45
Hi all! Riot45 here; please be welcomed into my weird and wonderful world of gothic horror, fantasy, sci-fi, thriller and D&D ramblings - maybe with a dash of queer romance, and political commentary (I cannot help myself). I’m studying for an undergrad degree in Politics and Social Sciences at the University of Manchester, though my home turf (regrettably) lies in the West Midlands, and I hope to do a PhD or go into research to aid the BIPOC LGBTQ+ community here in Britain (we need it). I can't wait to see what you write, and hope we can build on the weird and wonderful world of Fictish together! ...more
