Persnickety is a 43-year-old gay librarian who self-identifies as a nerd. And yes, he is persnickety.

I first heard it on Dawsons Creek and I’ve always enjoyed the way it sounds. It means fussy which I am in many ways !

Persnickety is a cisgender man. He loves reading, video games, fitness and exercise, and board games. He even went to a board game convention. (And apparently would have cleaned up as part of Hang Up Season 1 🤓🎲)

Not a self-portrait. "This was taken at the convention I just went to."
I just got a new board game called Rock Hard 1977 from a convention I went to. It’s by a bassist named Jackie Fox who was part of a 70s band called The Runaways. I love when famous people are revealed to be geeks!

Persnickety is a romantic, so his action figure would come with a bouquet of flowers and a box of chocolates.

Gentlemen, catch Persnickety while he's still on the market. He'd prefer to be wooed via the written word. You can shoot your shot at Wittyreaderli@gmail.com.
