I use the screen name Owlshine, formerly Owlish Olive. You can call me Owl or Olive or Owlish or Oli - whatever variation is easiest. I've gotten pretty good at answering to them all. My real name is actually Jaclyn, which you're also welcome to use, but it just sounds weird at this point!
I live near Memphis, Tennessee. I'm a thirty-something mom of one. My daughter is in elementary school and the most amazing pain in the ass there is. I seem to be slowly collecting a personal suburban zoo with four dogs (Remus, Kaylee, River, and Oz), a cat (Minerva "Minnie" McGonagall), and a very antisocial rabbit (Elsa). Right now I'm a housewife, raising my daughter with my wonderful husband. I also volunteer as a co-leader of my daughter’s Girl Scout troop. Somewhere in between that all, I find time to be a writer and play games and do art.
I've been playing play-by-post roleplays since I was eleven, though the last few years have just seen me writing private stories with good friends, rather than joining a game. I've written in equine RPGs, canine, human, fantasy, and anything else you can think of. I've probably tried it all. I began playing horse SIMs/PBBGs around the same time, starting with Horseland, but that wasn't able to hold my interest long-term and since the major changes I have given up on it entirely. Now I play primarily on Equiverse where I breed Dressage Andalusians, Friesians, and Akhal-Tekes; Driving Clydesdales, Gypsy Vanners, Miniature Horses, and Paints; Endurance Arabians, Mustangs, and Tennessee Walkers; Racing Thoroughbreds; Show Jumping Dutch Warmbloods, Trakehners, and Welsh Ponies; and Western Appaloosas and Quarter Horses. I’ve also got inactive accounts on some other games, including HorsePhenomena. I like to do HARPG/DARPG style art, usually on other people's lines/bases since I'm lazy, but I have done my own lines, too. I'm also a coder, having taught myself HTML and CSS starting at eleven, but have not yet learned how to code on Equiverse beyond editing my own layout.
Poke around this site if you're curious and you can message me with any questions on Equiverse or Discord.

Where to Find Me
I can be most quickly reached on Discord. You can also find me on DeviantArt, but I don't check that frequently for messages.
Below are also the different browser-based games I play or have played in the past.
