Sixthlight is a prolific and popular fanfiction and meta writer. She has posted more than 150 stories and been most active in Rivers of London and The Old Guard fandoms.

Sixthlight has posted a Blanket Statement inviting podfic and other derivative works, stating:

We all create in a shared space, so podfic or other derivative work of my fanfic is always OK. No need to ask for specific permission. If you'd rather, that's fine too; you just get to know what the answer is in advance. :)
