About Beanie
You can call me Beanie or Charlie, I use any pronouns; asexual and aro-spec, gender is a FUCK; I’m a born and raised Chicagoan; and I’m too young to be a millennial but too old to relate to Gen-Z.
I am a long-time writer! I’ve been writing for most of my life, primarily in the fantasy genre, and I am a published author. You can see more on my writing blog @the-beanfolio, where I will share my current projects as well as discussing writing and sharing other folks’ things simply for the joy of creation.
I am also a gamer, an art school dropout, and a diehard dragon enthusiast.
General interests
- Elder Scrolls lore
- Storytelling in any medium

I like to share posts and thoughts about:
The Elder Scrolls (primarily), Avatar: The Last Airbender and Legend of Korra, How To Train Your Dragon, Adventure Time, League of Legends (sparingly), The Amazing Digital Circus, The Lord of the Rings, BBC Merlin, books by Shannon Chakraborty, His Dark Materials, the Grishaverse, Baldur’s Gate 3, Nimona, whatever books I’m reading or games I’m playing or movies I’ve watched, and funny and stupid shit
As well as kitty cats, animation, folk music, and current events especially US politics because unfortunately I fucking live here (I’m usually good at remembering to tag them #us politics if you want to block that)

The baby in my cover photo is my son of 16 years named Smokey, who became my companion when I was 8 and left me when I was 24. If you hit follow, you have to blow him a kiss.
This is him in a banjo case.
