The Chaos, the Craft, and the Queer

Welcome to the Chaos, the Craft, and the Queer

This is Bev’s Queer Fantasy Blog, where storytelling meets soapboxes, and weirdness is worn like a crown. Here, you’ll find posts that wander through queer fiction, mental health, activism, and the occasional life rant. Sometimes dark, often delightful, and always honest. Sometimes, too honest.

Whether you’re here for book recs, spicy takes, or just to vibe with a non-binary writer who believes in happy endings (even if they come after a few dragons), you’re in the right place.

Scroll on, read deep, and remember: weird is wonderful, queer is powerful, and this blog is proudly both.

FAQ: Frequently Asked (and Occasionally Snarky) Questions

What’s this blog actually about?

This is Bev’s corner of the internet for queer storytelling, mental health reflections, book recs, spicy takes, and the occasional soapbox moment. It’s part personal, part professional, and 100% unapologetically weird—in the good way.

Who is Bev?

Bev is a queer fiction writer who centers non-binary characters, explores neurodivergence and mental health, and believes in happy endings (even if they come after a few dragons and breakdowns). They also share thoughts on life, activism, and whatever else sparks joy or rage.

Are the book recommendations all queer?

Mostly, yes! Bev prioritizes LGBTQIA+ authors and stories, especially those that celebrate radical authenticity, emotional depth, and genre-bending brilliance. Occasionally, a non-queer book sneaks in, usually because it’s weird, wonderful, or wildly relevant.

Are there trigger warnings?

Absolutely. Bev’s fiction and blog posts often explore heavy themes—trauma, mental illness, identity struggles—so trigger warnings are included where needed. There’s also a blanket warning for the blog: check the tags, read the intros, and curate your experience with care.

Is this blog a substitute for therapy?

Nope. While Bev is involved in mental health in her "real" life, this blog is not therapy. It’s a space for creative expression, not clinical guidance. If you’re struggling, please reach out to a trusted professional or support system.

Can I comment or contact Bev?

That depends on the platform setup. If comments are open, keep it respectful. Disagreement is fine; hate is not. If you want to reach out directly, check the contact page or social links, but please don’t treat Bev like your personal therapist or punching bag.

What if I disagree with something Bev says?

Cool. You’re allowed. This blog is one person’s perspective, not universal truth. If something doesn’t resonate, feel free to move on. Just don’t be a jerk about it.

Why is everything so weird here?

Because weird is wonderful. Bev celebrates the strange, the surreal, and the stories that don’t fit in neat little boxes. If you’re here for cookie-cutter content, you might be in the wrong place.
