My Bio

Currently, I'm a devoted live-in god-parent to twin toddlers, often referred to as the fairy godmother who rents a room in their basement, or "fairy god monster" according to the kiddos (oωO). At least they'll never have to be afraid of the monster in the basement. Otherwise I do what I can as a homemaker for my house-mates and their kids.


I've suspended my work to get my teaching certification due to chronic illness. My teaching major was biology with minors in math, computer science, and general natural science. I have a B.S. in General Natural Science with a focus on Computer Science, and was just 2 courses shy of completing my second B.S. in Biology with a focus on microbiology and 2 courses away from finishing my teacher's education. I still long to show kids just how mind-blowingly wondrous the world is when appreciated through the lens of science, which I now do through occasional tutoring. I also have an Associates degree in computer animation.


In my spare time I like to draw digitally, to come up with characters and worlds to one-day make into graphic novels, to make wire-wrapped jewelry, and to crochet weird and stupidly complicated amigurumi without using patterns.


I've been largely inactive online in the past few years due to a chronic pain disorder caused by a combo of nerve damage from extremely severe scoliosis and an autoimmune disorder. Only being able to sleep for 1 hour at a time before pain wakes one up makes it very hard to function day-to-day. Still, I try to keep a positive outlook on life.


I'm not picky on my gender pronouns, I'm he/him in my head but I'm not offended by being called she/her. I'm female-to-male transgender, though I still generally present as female/don't pass as male. I suppose that I might be strongly masculine-leaning gender fluid as my sense of gender is influenced by the culture and expectations of those immediately around me. My sense of self is complicated, and it's taken me 36 years to figure this much out. I have not been able to transition due to monetary limitations (*sigh* insurance doesn't cover anything related to gender transition in my part of the US, despite paying an arm and a leg for the highest level and most expansive and expensive coverage). I also do not follow many current masculine social norms, particularly where it comes to western fashion... my tastes have always been gothic, particularly leaning into Visual Kei and Gothic Lolita - Ouji/Dandy styles.

My Minotaur T-Shirt is available for purchase!  Click Here to order.  It's currently on sale for 45% off Yay! Also, I now have an Etsy store:  Curious Creature Designs I currently have my store stocked with jewelry and hand-made foam-rubber cat ears.  I've also made molds for Dragon Fin ears, a number of different types of barrette/elastic band mounted horns, and a pair of bat wings with over a 3 foot wingspan. I've also figured out the basics on how to run a livestream.  If there is interest, I will set up a drawing livestream once a week. Sorry that I've been so quiet.  I'm still having trouble with keeping my mind in order.  I keep ha

I'm Still Alive

https://www.etsy.com/shop/CuriousCreatureDsgns I'm working on setting up an Etsy Store, Yay! https://www.etsy.com/shop/CuriousCreatureDsgns At the moment, I just have a few pieces of jewelry up.  I'm working on getting more costume pieces (horns, ears, tails, wings, etc) finished up and photographed. I'm sorry for the extended radio silence!  I'm currently working on getting my life back in order. Early on in October, I started to develop hand tremors.  It was a bit embarrassing at Youmacon, as I had difficulty handling small coins.  Unfortunately, it worsened, and by December, I was unable to keep control of a pen.  I'd also lost much of

I'm terribly sorry for my long absence. I cannot express my thanks to those of you who voted for my Mythical Creatures t-shirt design.   As I am still an amateur, I never though I had a chance of winning, particularly with the amazing amount of high quality and creative pieces that were in the running. Being granted a finalist title for this contest has been a true godsend.  I recently ran out of my life savings thanks to medical expenses while being unable to hold down a traditional job.  This, paired with a very bad reaction to a medical injection and burning my drawing hand left me in a dangerous bout of depression. This prize has given
