Pre-rewrite stuff that I can't stop you from also reading but would recommend against:
Note: any events, personality traits, lore, etc. that carries over to Altitudes is purely coincidental. An abundance of information established in this is retconned; you can get 110% of the story by not touching them at all.

Bonus stories (Pre-rewrite)

Who am I? Who am I? Who am I? Who am I?

I started writing SCP stuff in 2021 in a storage closet. A distinct memory, because I was struggling to fall asleep in logical fear of what would happen the next day. It was a bad time. Writing let me persist. :)

Psychological horror and gore are my favorite. I use action PRN and incorporate a military background for a multitude of authorial reasons but also big tank cool. Aliens exist as a great way to build a world with whatever political situation suits your story best, and damn it, Jim, I'm not a biologist!
I stay as faithful as possible to real-world combat medicine, but starting every Tale with "BSI my scene is safe" would be redundant and also a big fat lie, as everyone is being pumped full of lead, and my characters don't often don nitrile gloves. Don't worry, copper-based blood would hypothetically have natural antimicrobial properties… eh, I'm not a biologist.

Most hated thing in writing: Inaccurate medical procedures. I'm sorry, it just shatters my suspension of disbelief and I cannot possibly continue. [vasovagals onto couch]
Most loved thing in writing: Characters expressing gallows humor in serious moments. Banter between characters. Subtlety.

Crit

Please ask me for it!

Topics I specialize in critting:

  • gore
  • violence
  • self-harm and suicide
  • personality disorders (clusters A & B)
  • prehospital medicine (EMS & TCCC)
  • stubborn motherfuckers of characters

Other topics I like critting:

  • surgery
  • pathology
  • anything that involves someone getting hurt or sick, really
  • combat, action-y stuff
  • military stuff!
  • sci-fi/tech-y stuff
  • aliens. Never enough aliens
  • obfuscated events, unreliable narrators, those narratives that slowly dawn on you
  • morally gray plotlines/characters

Won't crit:
Sex, romance, stuff that focuses heavy on abuse or mistreatment.

If you need help writing any of the above, idea feedback or draft feedback or factual analysis or sensitivity reading, I can do that. PM me here, ping me in the SCPF server, or DM me on Discord (@tiredsn0w).
