About
I am Lucy, a linguistics student specialising in semantics and a hobbyist in various areas. I'm currently writing an undergraduate dissertation on indexical shift, a semantic phenomenon. I also write a lot of stories and rules: some of the things I've written are here! I can be found on GitHub and LinkedIn and emailed directly at lucy @ this domain.
This website's theming takes inspiration from Chris DeLuca's Base CSS to Style a Novel and the theming of Georg Duffner's open source EB Garamond, which is also this site's preferred font. The colour scheme used for code blocks is Catppuccin Frappé. Please feel free to email me with accessibility and style concerns; I am always pleased to receive feedback. The site is hosted with The Tardis Project.

-
sialia.dev and its source, of course!
-
Overgrazed My static site generator, used to make this very site!
-
Garden Game (608.8 KB ULX) A little somewhat-unfinished demo for my interactive fiction game. Play with the link or a downloaded copy in any IF interpreter (I suggest Parchment).
