About
Me
Hey there, and welcome to my site! I go by Syl. I'm in my 30s, I use the pronouns she/her, and I'm an introvert and goth at heart.
I live in the southern United States, in a pollen-filled valley of the Appalachians, where I share an apartment with my husband and our dog, Ranni.
To pay the bills, I work from home as an accountant, but when I'm not working my day job, I write!
I also like to play video games, read books, swim, go to concerts, play Magic the Gathering, drink coffee, and pet dogs. I collect Silent Hill merch, enamel pins, Monster High dolls, and CDs. I'm a huge fan of all things horror and dark, but I also love cute and sparkly things. I spend a not insignificant amount of time learning about public transit and environmentalism on my own, two of my biggest interests. In case you're wondering, my favorite public transit system is Seattle's Sound Transit.

The Site
This is simply a personal blog where I can ramble about anything and everything that comes to mind without having to edit myself or pay particular attention to what I'm writing. It's a cathartic outlet where I can be myself.
Topics range from video games I've played to music I love to places I've been and everything in between. This blog does not have -- and never will have -- a certain focus. If you want more serious, less rambly writing, feel free to check out my portfolio.
I also want to make it abundantly clear that everything on this site is 100% written and coded by me, except where otherwise noted in the credits. I have not, do not, and will not ever use generative AI.

I love making new friends, and if you found me through this site, I'd love it if you said hey! You can email me.
