Hello, Fediverse! I'm Justin Gaylor living in Indianapolis. New to Mastodon which is – I've been told – the only social network that matters. I'm passionate about #writing, #programming, #ttrpg and #japaneselanguage and #japaneseculture. That's mainly what I'll post about. I've started too many novels, but determined to finish my current grimdark fantasy one.

Say hi or give me a follow if any of that aligns with your interests!
