Things you Geek About (interests, hobbies, fandoms): I like nature, cats, birds, hedgehogs, books, typography, tarot, urban planning, trains, cooking, and board games (especially Race for the Galaxy and Terraforming Mars). If it's wool, I'll wear it--I never have too many scarves, shawls, hats, or socks. Jewelry is also great, whether simple or ornate. I theoretically like the aesthetic of journals, but I hate writing longhand, so a blank book isn't likely to get much use--on the other hand, if you want to bind fanfic or collections of poetry, quotes, or recipes, that could be fun, and I could use a portfolio that holds loose papers. Housewares in general would also be welcome, whether pillows or pottery or an afghan.

Fannishly I'm mostly into science fiction and fantasy books, with particular interests these days including Dragaera, Erin Bow's books, Michelle West's books, Octavia Butler's books, Queen's Thief, Rosemary Sutcliff's books, and Terra Ignota. (Anything I give four or five stars to on Goodreads is a good bet.) I'm also a steady fan of Avatar: The Last Airbender and Korra and enthusiastic about Sleep No More.

My favorite colors are purple, green, and teal in any saturation from pastel to jewel tones. Black and white or earth-tone stuff is also great; I sometimes secretly aspire to a mori girl aesthetic. When it comes to metal I'm more likely to wear silver or copper than gold.

Any allergies/postal restrictions/simple DNWs: I have a mail theft problem. Please make sure anything you send is sent with tracking so I can make sure I'm home to bring it in when it arrives. Also, I'm Jewish; I am happy to make Christmas ornaments but please don't give them to me.
