Bio

Shadow Side [she/her] is the taller half of Penumbris.

A lifelong lurker, she believes that the most important thing when writing is to give the muses absolute free will. This helpfully absolves her of all responsibility for what they then go and do.

Lover of driving, coffee, wine, cinema, sunsets, politics, non-linear storytelling, weaponry and interrogation. Obsessed with alternate doubles, mirrorverses, and canon-divergence AUs. Especially if they come with extra leather and knives.

Proudly kinky, proudly pansexual, proudly British (especially when it comes to spelling). A sucker for a happy ending (except when she isn't).

Believed to be the Bad Cop; but really, when can you be completely sure?

Happiest when writing with her other half... the Short One.

If you think you need more of her ramblings in your life, you can follow her on Bluesky - she's @shadow-side - and she apologises in advance. Sort of.

And remember, there's always three sides to every story: the light side, the dark side... and the shadow side.
