hi, i'm fern- your local struggling college student with a nerdy website! i created this site as a way to learn html/css and engage with the neocities community. I discovered neocities in 2022 during a particularly bad bout of depression, and spent a long time hyperfixating on code. I've abandoned the site many times over the last three years for months at a time, but i always come back to it and i love working on it.
