#I’m like an ancient hermit gremlin

~About Me~

• My pronouns are she/they

• You may call me either by my pen name, Moira Bard, or by my chosen name, Luna. I will answer to both.

• I have… 4.5 indoor cats. Yes, I know that’s a lot of cats. Taming and caring for the feral gremlins in my neighborhood has become a hobby

• I’m autistic. And probably ADHD, too.

• I’m also a visually impaired person with albinism

• I enjoy mythology, folklore, fairytales, and world history

• I identify as queer

• Aside from writing, I enjoy editing fiction, playing DnD, studying herbalism, singing, stage-acting, studying astrology, graphic design, watching history documentaries, interior design, crafting with modeling clay, sketching, reading fantasy books, watercolors, practicing tarot, and baking

• Is my goal to traditionally publish? Not sure. Currently, the plan is to do those things which bring me the most joy— and that includes storytelling

• I’m In my 20s, but I’m secretly an ancient hermit hidden in a stone cottage, nestled in a dark wood untouched by sunlight and civilization. Through some arcane magic I shan’t divulge there is indeed an internet connection.

About My Writing & Related Topics

• I’m a plotter, though I’ve recently been straying from adhering to a strict outline and allowing the characters and my own whims to dictate the story

• I write mostly fantasy and sci fi for adults and young adults

• I would like to indie publish at some point— though I’m in no rush. For now, I write because I can’t not tell stories

• I’m also adapting some public domain works into scripts, mostly because my friends and I need fresh audition pieces

• I draft with scrivener and speech-to-text software

• my pen name is Moira Bard. I chose it because it evokes a sense of ethereal whimsy— two words I feel encompass my energy quite nicely

• I prefer comments and reblogs over likes— but don’t let me tell you how to writeblr. All interactions are appreciated!

Here are my 2024 writing goals

Blurb Writing Tips

Writer’s Guide to Conquering Executive Dysfunction

I co-run moon+seraph — a blog dedicated to encouraging and supporting the writing community here on tumblr

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND that my blindness makes me reliant on screen readers— you might also know this as text-to-speexh software. I use this tech to make tumblr more accessible to ne. One of the limits of the tech I use is that hashtags aren’t picked up and read to me. Please be aware that any messages left for me to read in the tags of a post… well, won’t be. I can’t see them and my tech won’t read them. I prefer feedback be left in comments and the text area on posts and revblogs for this reason.

Have to make an official list probably tomorrow (later today, since it’s acutally 4 in the morning* and I’ll properly tag folks that asked (I have to hunt down all the names)

But these are all the cards I’m willing to trade, sorted mostly by color. all foils are to the right side. Not sure how clear it is at the moment though.

As for things I’m looking for? Top of my list are things that I’m likely not to get with this pile (unless someone just wanted that many cheap rares and foils). Still, I’m going to put the top items I would love to get, then under a cut, I’ll just list everything in current standard I don’t have a playset of XD In general, just feel free to make an offer. But specific cards that are on my wish list are: Top cards I wish I could have: Ornathopter MP and Foil KLD Mox Opal MP Dark Ritual MP Rings of Brighthearth Crucible of Worlds Sword of Feast and Famine Sword of Light and shadow Sword of Fire and ice Aether Vial Aggravaged assault Worship Wrath of god Conspiriacy The Kaldra artifacts (sword/shield/helmet) Anafenza the Foremost Kolaghan's command Atarka's command

Under the cut are all the standard cards I don’t have playsets of. Because I grabbed them just from my inventory list, these are literally how many of each I have.
