About me — Selena Bloom

Hey, I’m Selena!

I’m 24 and I live just outside Austin, Texas. Born and raised here, never really left — which is kinda funny because online everybody assumes I’m from somewhere way cooler. Nope. Just Texas, just me, just a whole lot of coffee.

Speaking of coffee, I work part time at a little coffee shop, and I swear half my best game ideas come to me while I’m steaming milk for someone’s oat latte. There’s something about the routine that lets my brain wander to base layouts and crafting strategies. Occupational hazard, I guess.

So here’s the dumb origin story: I got into survival games because of an ex. He was OBSESSED with one game, played it every single night, and honestly I started playing just so we’d have something to talk about. Then we broke up and… I just kept playing. Turns out I liked the game way more than I liked him. No joke.

These days I’m deep into stuff like Valheim and Rust — anything where you start with nothing and slowly build a little home while the world’s actively trying to murder you. I find it weirdly calming? Like therapy, but with wolves. I love sharing my long-form builds and behind-the-scenes process over in my exclusive content corner, where I get to be a little more unfiltered about the grind and the messy first drafts of every base.

One weird detail about me: I name every single character after old country singers. Don’t ask me why, it just started one day and now I genuinely can’t stop. My latest survivor is named after Loretta Lynn, and honestly she’s tougher than me.

I’m single right now, mostly by choice, still figuring things out after everything. But the building? The crafting? That part I’ve got figured out.

Stick around. Let’s build something. 🏕️
