About paperforest

Hi! I'm paperforest, I'm an 18 year-old ace girl, and I love poetry (especially abstract/surrealist-type poems that incorporate nature and mythology) and short stories (especially flash fiction and fantasy). I will read almost any book that comes my way! Also, Shakespeare.

I'm currently working on a fantasy LGBTQ novel involving Faerie hunts, changelings, curses, and a vast forest world that can only be found when one is lost. I write poems on the side, and I attempt to write short stories, but have trouble ending them... I also draw a bit, and love all forms of art.

I'm new here, and hope to make some friends!

Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.
— Brené Brown
