@Inknosed @litsubmissions I'm trying to convince people to use #writtensf more. The #scifi tag is 99% comics, art, TV, and movies. #speculative_fiction has been observed in the wild.

Hello Mastodon! Thought it was about time I did an #introduction post.
I'm Philippa, a freelance #editor and proofreader for outdoors literature and #speculative_fiction. I live in Snowdonia, and if I'm not working or reading, I'm generally outdoors - either in the sea, or #climbing or running or skiing in the mountains.
Looking forward to getting involved with the #writingcommunity on here!
