I Am:
ysabetwordsmith aka Ysabet.
I Make: Pretty much anything having to do with words made of language. I write nonfiction, fiction, poetry, and in the last couple years I've started dabbling in scripts. My main fields include speculative fiction, gender studies, alternative spirituality, and cultural engineering. A majority of my bingo fills are poetry, some fiction, and I've submitted LOL_HEROES at least once. I'm into shared worlds. I also do photography and assorted crafts, but I haven't used those as bingo fills yet. You can find a lot of my work through my website.
I Like: All the same stuff I write. I also enjoy speculative artwork, representational art of more conventional subjects, photography, filk songs, crafts, cake decorating, recipes ... almost anything creative, really. On my blogs I often link to photos of craft projects by my friends. Some of my favorite fandoms include: Avengers, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly, Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes, Star Trek, Supernatural, Tolkien, and X-Men. I am particularly prone to supporting projects that deal with controversial topics and/or people often ignored or misrepresented by mainstream entertainment. I have artwork by other folks connected with some of my writing, a handful of tunes for my lyric poetry, and I'm generally open to more of that.
I Play: These are all bingo communities where I have requested cards ...
cottoncandy_bingo
darkfantasybingo
genprompt_bingo
hc_bingo
kink_bingo
ladiesbingo
origfic_bingo
trope_bingo
Of these,
cottoncandy_bingo was the leading favorite for me and my audience. My current favorites are
hc_bingo,
origfic_bingo, and
genprompt_bingo. I like
ladiesbingo because it challenges me to write more about women's relationships.
trope_bingo is kind of hard, but I liked it well enough to repeat.
kink_bingo was fun once, but too narrow for my purposes, so I haven't repeated it. I've also done Creator Bingo. Here are some of my bingo cards.
Find Me: These are some of my other online locations ...

About Me: I live in Illinois. The local environment shows up in my work sometimes. I enjoy reading, cooking, gardening, and scrapbooking. I'm a professional wordsmith and my work spans writing, editing, and other stuff. I've also been organizing online communities for about 19 years.
