ocrealmWho are you? What name / alias and pronouns do you go by? Are you an artist, a writer, aspiring to be, or something else? Anything you find relevant to yourself.
I'm a writer, Dusk Peterson, they/them/their. I've hung out with the online fiction community since 2002.
Who are your main OCs? Are they part of a specific OC universe or fandom? What's their personality like?
I have so many OCs! So it's easier to talk about my originalfic universes. These are my main two 'verses:
Chronicles of the Great Peninsula. A cycle of mythic historical fantasy series about a battle between cultures, Chronicles of the Great Peninsula is set at a time when a centuries-old civilization is in danger of being destroyed. The cycle is inspired by conflicts between cultures during late antiquity.
Turn-of-the-Century Toughs. Honored seven times in the Rainbow Awards for LGBTA literature, Turn-of-the-Century Toughs is a cycle of gaslamp alternate history series about disreputable men on the margins of society, and the men and women who love them. Set in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, as well as in a future that never existed, the novels and stories take place in an alternative version of America that was settled by inhabitants of the Old World in ancient times.
What relationships exist between your OCs? Be it platonic, romantic, familial, or even enemies and so on!
All of the above. :)
Chronicles of the Great Peninsula is mainly about platonic life-partnerships; it also features friendship, family, romance (f/m and m/m), and enemies. Turn-of-the-Century Toughs is mainly about m/m romance; it also features platonic life-partners, friendship, family, f/m romance, and enemies.
For those who are interested, I've just posted a round-up linking to all my stories from 2025. The stories are T-rated, featuring friendships, platonic life-partnerships, and romantic pairings (f/m and m/m). Here's my boilerplate content warning. I'd love to hear what you think of the stories.
