Hey, I’m Cassie — welcome to the chaos!
I’m 44, queer, non-binary (they/them), demisexual, AuDHD, and disabled. I live in the South West of England with too many books, a frankly alarming stationery stash, and my wonderful not-wife, Li 💛
I work in finance, study history & classical studies with the Open University, and spend the rest of my time reading, writing fanfic, yelling about tennis, and lovingly naming inanimate objects.
This blog is a comfy mix of:
- 📚 Mood reading & bookish ramblings
- 🎾 Tennis brain (mostly Sinner, mostly unhinged)
- 💬 Fandom meta & fanfic feels
- 🧠 Queer life, chronic overthinking & mental health honesty
- 🎮 Cozy gaming & sad-girl Swiftie energy
