I'm Nanumi.
I like writing.
I like coherent spelling, grammar and punctuation.

I am English, and as such, writing a biography that reflects my writing style is beyond me.
Stiff upper-lippedness and all that guff.
My writing style's mostly first person prose or poetry, but I'm always looking to expand into third person, even if none of that particular perspective bears publication presently.

Most importantly, I'm a harsh critic; if I review your work and you think I'm being needlessly scathing or not explaining why I've said what I have, contact me. I'm not here to p*ss on anyone's parade, I'm here to hone my skills and to help others do likewise.

All reviews of decent length and coherency will be returned.


1. Infected and Going Viral reviews
All life and matter is basically energy, thus when energy is re-directed, re-arranged and transubstantiated, what is there left to do but capitulate to sentiments which are as real as one's own? The idea that we are merely made up of chemicals and electrical impulses leaves many people cold. Short first-person prosaic piece loosely based around infection as a metaphor for lust.

2. Diary of a Sadist » reviews
When pleasure and pain are inter-connected, boundaries, both physical and mental, will undoubtedly be crossed. This piece is an exploration of the shifting nuances behind the thought processes of an unnamed sadist as they begin to unclench themselves from self-imposed exile, and learn how to relate to the world through other mediums than those of the whip or the blade. ON HIATUS.

3. Eyes Like a Stormy Sea » reviews
"I'm still unsure as to whether I cajoled him into letting me make him up in my cosmetics or whether he was a willing participant; I do remember that it turned his sweet, plump face into something more feral – an innocent perversion of faux femininity – and that it struck an odd chord somewhere deep within me." Speculative fiction about feral teenagers in a plastic world.

4. Cave of Velvet reviews
The ice has set in early; I huddle within my velvet cave/Quiet, dark nights like these are so beautifully easy to lose oneself in./There is a glow, a certain transcendental hush – no rush/Time has stopped for me, just for me. All for me

6. Waltzing with Shadows reviews
I come here sometimes, to dance my clumsy, shameful arabesques through the echoing, dilapidated rooms. No-one has been here other than in clandestine boots for many years, and the rotting boards sweat stale rainwater under my feet.

7. Red Letter Relations reviews
A short poem on the subject of the times when the dark depths of the winter nights creep in, and the world shrinks to an incandescent bubble, lit solely by the flickering blue of my computer screen; the last outpost of the lost who still seek.

8. Graduation from a Kitten to a Tigress reviews
"Much has changed since I was asked, straight-faced, whether I was aware of the location of a certain erogenous zone. I, the innocent child of summer that I was, answered, "No?" He purred "…Let me educate you, then," and made fireworks explode behind my eyes. Much has changed, indeed."

13. Clothed Coherency reviews
What there is of me I wear outwardly/ - wear myself inside out, and wear you out -/So I have tugged my ragdoll's coat about me/pulling tight 'til the seams show white.

15. Wearing One's Heart On One's Sleeve
I arrived to my appointment with the Dark Doctor about five minutes late. The curtains were drawn but for an inch between them, allowing only a finger of the strong June sunlight to illuminate the room; I could have been on the inside of a golden sarcophagus with only a cigarette lighter to see by.
