MadMuser

Hello, Fellow Rpers!

You may call me Muser! I am a female writer over the age of 30, but write both male and female characters depending on the muse - although, quite honestly, I end up writing male characters far more often out of preference and inspiration. The gender identity (if any) of the writer behind a character does not matter to me, and I'm LGBTQ+ friendly both IC and OOC. It's all about getting deep into the characters themselves, bringing them to life together in a story we all enjoy collaborating on!

My writing style: 3rd person, past tense. Multi-para to novella.

There are multiple genres I'm into, and maybe a few fandoms that I could actually write in. Just for full disclosure, I haven't written in a lot of fandoms so I can't really promise that I'd be comfortable writing for too many canons. That said, if you're looking to fill a canon role and it's something I've seen or read, maybe you could inspire me to jump in! So, some of my interests include, in no particular order:

Horror: I'm a big horror fan, especially of the hauntings/paranormal/supernatural (not the show) or science fiction horror varieties. I'm not much into slasher films, but I do admit to a fascination with serial killers and cults as well.

Thrillers, suspense, Crime, Southern Gothic, dark psychological

Historical: I'm no expert on any particular era, but have written a fair bit in the Victorian period so am probably the most well versed there, as well as the Old West. Others I enjoy but haven't written much in are the 1920s/30s, ancient Rome/Pompeii, WWII, 1960's, Edwardian/Titanic.

Apocalyptic or Dystopian: While i haven't actually written any of these SLs yet, I'm absolutely interested in exploring a story in an apocalyptic or dystopian setting.

Fandoms: Stephen King (various, but especially things like The Shining/Doctor Sleep and 1408), X-Men, Star Trek TNG, X-Files, American Horror Story, Carnival Row, Gotham (the TV show w/Sean Pertwee as Alfred Pennyworth), Penny Dreadful, Alien/s, A Quiet Place, The Following (TV show with Purefoy/Bacon)...and a lot more I can't think of at the moment, and I like a LOT of movies, LOL. Just ask!

"Normal" slice of life storylines aren't usually to my liking, i.e. a straight every day sort of story with only realistic elements and no psychological deep dives or other interesting elements doesn't interest me. But again, if you're not sure, feel free to ask! Maybe you have an idea with an ingredient to add something intriguing that we can talk about.

Some face claims I've used/enjoy using:
Male (I frequently am drawn to "older" faces):
James Purefoy
Hugh Jackman
Michael Fassbender
Sean Pertwee
Casey Affleck
Ewan McGregor
John Cusack
Ben McKenzie
David Duchovny
Gabriel Byrne
Victor Garber
Tim Roth
Orlando Bloom (especially from Carnival Row)
Others I'm not thinking of at the moment - just ask!

Female:
Scarlett Johansson
Gillian Anderson
Kate Winslet
Connie Britton (especially from AHS: Murder House/Apocalypse)
Rachel Weisz
Morena Baccarin
Natalie Portman

I do have a fulltime Monday-Friday job during the day, so my availability is evenings/weekends depending on family obligations.

I'm fairly open to discussing all the elements of a story, what my partners are looking for and answering questions about my limits, etc. Hoping to partner up on some amazing story adventures!
