About Me

Hello! I'm Bex!

I'm a gaming and academic librarian who loves cats, gaming (TTRPGs, board games video games), crafting, reading, and snail mailing.

General interests: ๐Ÿ˜ป cats ๐Ÿ‰ dragons ๐Ÿฆ‰ owls ๐Ÿ“š books โ˜• coffee & tea ๐ŸŒฒ forests ๐Ÿฆ„ fantasy โœจ fairy tales ๐Ÿ folklore ๐Ÿ™ mythology ๐Ÿ›ธ sci-fi ๐Ÿงซ science ๐Ÿ’ซ space ๐ŸŽฒ gaming ๐Ÿงน occult ๐Ÿ”ฎ tarot / lenormand ๐Ÿ‘ป paranormal

ALLERGIES: Smoke, latex, nickel/brass

Favorite Crafts

I've recently started making gel prints! I love unique buttons with fun patterns or textures that I can use to create textures in paint.

I enjoy making postcards and custom envelopes for regular cards.

I love rubber stamp carving!

Making mini zines!

Favorite Media

I enjoy books and movies/TV. Fantasy is my favorite. I like both high fantasy and cozy fantasy. I like sci-fi and paranormal, too.

I love games! I really enjoy tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs), even solo TTRPGs. I also like board games and video games. I love campaign style board games like Artisans of Splendent Vale or Gloomhaven, as well as deck builders like Mystic Vale. I really love logic puzzles, so I like board games like Cryptid and The Search for Plant X, as well.

Vibes

Good vibes: forest witch, dark academia, cozy fantasy, moss kittens, stationary and craft supplies, interactive fiction, zines, games, mixed media art (including handmade bookmarks and postcards)

Bad vibes: food, jewelry, things that smell like cigarette smoke, slime, tiny loose glitter (pressed glitter is fine, or samples of chunky glitter), Americana, Christian religious items

ALLERGIES: Smoke, latex, nickel/brass

Comment: Your lovely zines arrived this morning -- thank you so much! I really enjoyed reading them. And I'm in awe of your stamp carving skills -- I had a go recently for the first time and the results were fairly mediocre! Yours are great.
Response: Thank you! That's so kind of you! A friend of mine does lovely intricate stamps that I am always in awe of. Definitely takes a lot of practice! But I am very happy with mine so far. Thank you for the heart!

Comment: Thank you for both of the darling zines you sent me. I think it's so cool that you carve your own stamps. I agree that summer did pass too quickly, although we still have some warm temperatures during the day.
Response: So glad you liked them! Carving stamps is a lot of fun and fairly easy -- I carve mine on pink erasers! Thanks for the heart!
