Talia Franks

Talia Franks Talia Franks (they/them) is a writer, poet, translator, cosplayer, and podcaster from Massachusetts. At my core I am a writer.

I am an intuitive person who finds joy in creating and building community with effort and intentionality. I’ve been told I’m quirky, and I know that I bring my unique experiences and critical points of view to every table. I believe in the importance of language as something that can be used to both heal and harm, and that we need to be critical of the ways that we use language precisely because i

t can be weaponized in such a manner, particularly in literary and fandom spaces, which is where I have the most expertise. I’m a poet, a writer, a reader, a translator, a podcaster, and above all a creative who likes their feminism intersectional and their entertainment diverse. As an aspiring polymath (basically a nerd) I use every day as an opportunity to make real world magic a reality. I’m never more comfortable than when I have a pen in hand, though I’m getting pretty good with a set of knitting needles, when I need to take some time to relax. Writing is only the tip of the iceberg in terms of my creating, however, as I am also a cosplayer, a podcaster, and a creator of chaos. At present I am co-host and executive producer of The Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey Podcast, a retroactive, deep dive Doctor Who analysis podcast in collaboration with my friend Lucia Kelly. My other podcast project, Into the Archives: A Fanfiction Podcast, is currently on hiatus.

Hey so if you haven’t watched yet… do it. ASAP. It’s honestly such a good show and Disney has done SUCH an extraordinary disservice to an amazing series by underpromoting it!!! That’s not to say it isn’t without its faults and I wouldn’t call it perfect but it’s definitely in my top 5 of Disney+ shows 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾

I’m finally caught up on Doctor Who and I am LIVID with myself for sleeping on this season. The story and the engine in particular is my new favorite episode.

My new job has a mirror in the elevator and it takes extreme force of will to not take a selfie every time I’m in it alone. Sometimes I am not that strong.

Good morning!
