Hello world!

Greetings! My name's Jessica (often shortened to Jess), and while I'm not exactly a newbie to Dreamwidth this is (evidently) my first entry on my brand-spankin'-new account. I'm hoping to use it to indulge my inner geek a little, although of course we'll see how things turn out!

A little more on me: I live in Melbourne with my partner and my cat. Thanks to my university degree, I speak Spanish to a level of moderate competence. (I read it very well though.) My interests would include reading (lots of genres), writing (spec fic), watching good TV, cooking, technology, languages and like… society. My politics are very left-wing. I am shy, with strong lurker tendencies, but please feel free to comment on anything that seems interesting and strike up a friendly convo – I'd be happy to chat!

As I mentioned I have been on Dreamwidth before, mostly between 2009–2012 before I faded out in favour of Tumblr (where I was jayeless). I don't feel like I was very good at connecting with other people who actually used DW at that time, which I'm hoping to do better at now, but at any rate all the posts I amassed then can now be found at jayeless_archive. I've also been known to use Mastodon (as jayeless@mastodon.cloud, Twitter (as thejayeless), Goodreads (as this Jessica) and a number of other sites. Shout out, if you like, if you recognise me from somewhere!

I hope that serves as enough of an introduction for now! Further posts should be forthcoming, once I've written some, and once it's at least tomorrow 😉 Until then!
