Hi, I'm Andrew (he/him), but I also go by @BookSwiftieAndrew around the internet. In case it wasn't already obvious from this website and … my entire aesthetic, I'm a pretty big swiftie (I'm a former Lover turned Tortured Poets guy myself).

A selfie of me laying upside-down on a quilt while making a weird face.

However, I'm also an aspiring graphic designer / sustainable farmer (I'm looking for a man with farmland winking face with tongue emoji IYKYK) with lots of varying hobbies and interests including: all things tech (and by proxy being the tech support guy for my loved ones winking face with tongue emoji), reading / writing (love some fantasy or a good romance), amateur photography, working on coding projects (lately I've been getting into a lot of web dev), geeking out over any one of the several fandoms I happen to be engaged in, and crafting or D.I.Y.-ing pretty much everything.

Life is emotionally abusive, but there is beauty to be found within it as well. And while I tend to be a little weird sometimes, and totally suffer from wanting to do too much (Trust me and my dead project drawer grinning face with sweat emoji), I am finally falling in love with life and who I am as a person, even the weird, totally cringe bits. And I've got to say, it's like snow on the beach, and it is so f*cking beautiful.

Whether you're here for the journey, or just a specific topic I'm currently hyperfixating on, welcome! And I hope to see you out there! white heart emoji

With love,
Andrew
Intern at the Tortured Poets Department
