to:

* ActionGirl: She actually doesn't mind this trope, citing Astrid from ''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon'' as one of her favourite examples, but does feel it's currently overused in modern media.

** She devoted [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZd4xjpEds0 a video]] to ranting about overzealous fans saying "don't like, don't watch" to dismiss any criticism of anything - particularly as it pertains to Music/TaylorSwift.



* TakeAThirdOption: She's quite outspoken about criticising Music/TaylorSwift, and of the school that isn't just about her overuse of breakup songs, but lots of content in the songs that suggests she hasn't learned from her mistakes, appears to fall for people too fast ("I'm glad you think twelve days counts as a long time") and disturbing narratives indicating emotional abuse on her part.

to:

* TakeAThirdOption: RefittedForSequel:[[invoked]] She recorded an interview for a planned podcast with Bobby Calloway, who then decided to drop the project altogether. A clip from the interview, where she debunks some myths about corsets, later was used in a video.

She is best known for writing the epic fantasy ''[[https://www.amazon.co.uk/Callatis-Chronicles-Song-W-Eretson-ebook/dp/B0C18JHH8S Callatis Chronicles]]'', which was first released serially via her [[https://ko-fi.com/songweretson Ko-Fi page]], before being published as a novel in 2023, and also for co-hosting the ''Two Women Talking'' podcast with Creator/LianaK.

!!Tropes associated with her work:

* AuthorAppeal: She's very fond of very powerful feminine women using social tactics to maneouvre throughout life, appropriately enough as a Creator/JaneAusten fan.
* BerserkButton:
** As a huge fan of the original Franchise/ConanTheBarbarian, she is not too pleased at how the Arnold Scharzenegger films are what most people think of.
** In an episode of ''Two Women Talking'', ''Film/LittleWomen2019'' and its infamous inaccuracies with the costumes are mentioned by someone else, and she voices her displeasure with the film itself and the book as well.
--> "They didn't even have a single bonnet! And one of the girls wears Ugg boots!"
* ButNotTooWhite: As a pale-skinned redhead, she likes to call attention to the discrimination towards pale skin, particularly in how makeup brands often don't have options for paler complexions.
* CelebrityResemblance: She's been told she looks like Creator/NicolaCoughlan of ''Series/DerryGirls'' and ''{{Series/Bridgerton}}'' fame, especially in the latter, when she has red hair.
* CostumePorn: ''Callatis Chronicles'' devotes lots of time to describing the ladies' finery whenever there's a ball. By contrast, her artwork shows costumes that are SimpleYetOpulent.
* CriticalDissonance:[[invoked]] She's stepped out of line with the responses to ''Brave'' big time, pointing out that the story has a lot of value that's often dismissed because of its focus on the power the queen wields in society, and its focus on political intrigue as opposed to more typical adventure themes.
* DCupDistress: She took the time to call out a meme comparing a thin, flat-chested drawing of a woman bearing the caption 'normal woman' with a larger breasted woman reading 'objectified woman', pointing out that large-breasted women do exist.
* DamselInDistress: She's quite fond of the trope, saying that it's an example of Administrivia/TropesAreTools, and the appeal of it for a RescueRomance is quite compelling.
* EarlyBirdCameo: Before providing a voiceover and section for a ''Better With Bob'' video on the fashion of ''{{Series/Charmed 1998}}'', she also fact checked the costumes for a video on the episode "Pardon My Past".
* EarnYourHappyEnding: She prefers happy endings and talks about how her kneejerk reaction to ''{{Film/Barbie 2023}}'' was to root for Barbie and Ken to get together, while still acknowledging that the actual ending was what was best for the story.
* EatingTheEyeCandy: She happily details an experience where she went to see the first ''{{Film/Thor}}'' and a friend had to remind her to breathe during Chris Hemsworth's ShirtlessScene.
* FanFiction: She got her start writing fan fiction for ''WesternAnimation/{{Brave}}'', ''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{Tangled}}''.
* TheFashionista: She sews her own dresses, and is very knowledgeable about historical clothes, and can often point out inaccuracies in films.
* GenreThrowback: Her artwork is heavily influenced by the PulpMagazine covers, and pin-up art of the 1940s.
* {{Irony}}: When providing a voiceover for a ''WebVideo/BetterWithBob'' video, she notes the irony that she was quoting Creator/AlyssaMilano after having previously spent time in Anti-SJW circles.
* LighterAndSofter: She's not a fan of DarkFantasy and thinks the market needs more fantasy worlds that are brighter and more colourful.
* MadonnaWhoreComplex: Very fond of shooting this completely to hell, posting sensual artwork of attractive women as well as men, and highlighting how Jessica Rabbit is one of her idols for how she completely subverts the trope.
* OfCorsetsSexy: She's happy to debunk [[OfCorsetHurts the other trope]] by pointing out that a corset custom made for the wearer and applied correctly is perfectly fine to wear, and she herself likes wearing one to work.
* OneOfTheBoys: Although very traditionally feminine, she admits to having mostly male friends.
* PinkMeansFeminine: She likes pink and recalls watching ''{{Film/Barbie 2023}}'', where her mother noted her enthusiasm during the Barbie Land sequences because of the sheer amount of pink on display.
* TakeAThirdOption: She's quite outspoken about criticising Music/TaylorSwift, and of the school that isn't just about her overuse of breakup songs, but lots of content in the songs that suggests she hasn't learned from her mistakes, appears to fall for people too fast ("I'm glad you think twelve days counts as a long time") and disturbing narratives indicating emotional abuse on her part.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: In ''Two Women Talking'', she is the GirlyGirl to Liana's {{Tomboy}}, as a fan of romance novels, {{Chick Flick}}s, pop music etc. She is however a GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak.
