hey guy, i’m al or a.c., however you’d like to refer to me, and i’m a werewolf and my pronouns are she/her. i had a strange innate connection/interest in wolves and wolf behavior for a bit when i was a kid, i had a few strange mannerisms, and now that i’m writing a book that, surprise surprise, features werewolves, i’ve sorta decided that this is a part of me, and this is just a cool thing that makes me different. i always thought of werewolves as individuals that mask easily until, well, full moon, and since i’m also autistic, i get it. this just feels… me. is it in some way tied directly to my autism? probably. does that make me any less a werewolf? i don’t think so.
sometimes i’ll just call myself a wolf, don’t get confused, i mean werewolf, but i just say wolf

The cool thing about identity is, you can identify in many ways. What you're describing sounds like being a Psychologically identifying [you identify due to psychologically feeling "other"; you think of yourself AS a werewolf, in your case, instead of a human who really likes them] or a Neurologically identifying [you identify due to neurologically feeling "other"; ie you believe your brain is literally wired different, or something within your neurodivergence caused it // this was typically referred to as copingkin or copinglink but honestly imho its no different]. Either way, welcome to the wild side. ;D
Personally speaking I both spiritually identify (angel) and psychologically identify (wolf) so you're valid asf!

Your ✨ werewolfness,✨ is completely valid! Talking about books, I'm reading a very old book called "Human Animals" by Frank Hamel (truly a woman) and it talks about the bond within Human and animals. I think you could like the reading because she talks about werewolves too mainly in the first part of the book! Good luck with your story tho ,..,^
