"I'm no woman at all. I'm a red-shouldered hawk, cursed to live in human form." #witchproblems #ilovebrooms

Hello, nice to meet you. You can call me Jen. I'm a wife and SAHM of four who writes encyclopedia articles on my iPhone 11 while folding laundry and waiting to pick up the kids from school, etc. One of these days I would like to become a working mom again, because money, but for the time being I'm mostly here with the goal of making new start-class to B-class quality articles on topics of low importance in my areas of interest (history, nature, books, women).

New Wikipedia article topic clusters include biographies of New Deal artists, demolished buildings, projects explicitly inspired by the success of Wikipedia, water in the desert, stubs for California coastal sage and chaparral ecoregion biota getting observations on iNaturalist, and biographies of troubled heirs (e.g. Robert Johnson, St. Clair Morgan, Hope H. Slatter II, George W. Kirkman, Christian R. Holmes II) and 19th-century American scoundrels (such as assorted American slave traders, S. S. Boyd, Hilliard P. Dorsey, Fontaine H. Pettis). I also have a soft spot for men who did the work and did it well, even if no one ever gave them the title, cf John Bell Brownlow and A. W. Murray. Since 2022 I've been doing a lot of American slavery stuff, predominantly biographies of American slave traders but with lots of spin-offs.

Sometimes I start find article topics that trigger the creation of a whole web of related articles—for instance, Joe Martin (orangutan), William Andrew Johnson, Chicano Liberation Front, and Red Hynes (coming in approximately 2032?). I think I find those webs the most rewarding of all.
