#florilege's things

Hi! I'm Flore Picard (any pronouns), I'm a French author and artist and linguist.

Under other names I'm a fanfiction devourer and writer but here I'm going to talk about original writing and art, linguistics, and anything else that catches my fancy outside of fandom. Expect dragons, tall ships, queerness, disability representation and octopuses, probably.

I'm finally opening a blog in my name in honour of my first original short story coming out in an anthology published by @duckprintspress, Aether Beyond the Binary! The story is titled The Light Organ and it's about a magical storytelling organ, a nonbinary musician and a small broken family finding each other and themselves. The kickstarter campaign is open, please go check it out!

I'm also @florilegeart on Instagram, Bluesky and Mastodon where I mostly post my art.

Blog navigation (subject to change):

I don't have many tags yet but my own writing will be tagged #florilege's stories and my art #florilege's art, and other original posts #florilege's things.

Images in original posts will be described in alt text. I don't have the spoons to describe images in other people's posts more than occasionally, but I try to prioritize reblogging posts with described images.

There may be the occasional post in French or in both French and English (which will start with something like 'fr/en').

TWs/CWs will be tagged as best as I can, but feel free to send me an ask or a DM if I forget something. I usually tag in this format: #cw [thing]

#beautiful writing and #beautiful art are my tags for other people's writing and art.
