SHADE ARJUUN
The name I write under, and a running list of the things I care about — fantasy, myth, and a few other worlds I keep wandering back into.
One Trunk, Many Branches
These all grow off the same root for me: a habit of building worlds, whether the tool is a pen, a controller, or a pencil.
Short Stories
I love how much a short story can hold — one image, a single turn of feeling, finished before the candle burns down.
Long-Form Novels
The long ones are what I keep going back to, where systems, myth and character get hundreds of pages to grow into each other.
Fantasy Worlds
Myth-built settings are my home ground: thrones, calamities, and the quiet rules that hold a world together.
God of War
Norse myth, brutal combat and fatherhood in one story. I keep studying it for pacing and restraint.
Hogwarts Legacy
A castle I happily get lost in. Exploring a world is a different pleasure from reading about one.
