About Me
I'm Robin Darker, a 27-year-old queer writer from Yorkshire, UK (they/he) studying Creative Writing at York St. John University!
My primary interests are in fantasy worlds , sci-fi, and queer fiction, but I enjoy testing my limits and branching out into other genres.
My current favourite reads are 'Mortal Engines' by Phillip Reeve, 'This Wretched Beauty' by Elle Grenier, and 'Stories of Your Life' by Ted Chiang.
Inspirational games for me include I Was a Teenage Exocolonist, Ashwalkers, and At Eve's Wake. Gimme all the 'quencies of my own actions (づ￣ ³￣)づ
