hello, could you please check my message when you are available?

Hello to any and all readers that read our stuff! it's been a while, hasn't it? This isn't a notification that we're deleting the account, but this is a notification about the content posted on it. Looking back the content is not particularly flattering and has not aged well in the best of times. It's not content that I'm proud of and it's not content Mary is proud of to the same extent. We'll consider deleting it but as for right now, it'll stay up. We were working on refurbishing Black cypress but that has hit a wall and Amongst the Snow is something I personally find extremely embarrassing. Further updates on what will happen to these stories will come but for now, know we are considering unpublishing them. Maybe we'll touch them up and republish them late but as it stands it feels very icky to have them as they are regardless.
          
          Best wishes, and happy holidays- Dani

Hello kind readers who follow us, a while (like, last year) ago I (Dani) wrote a Choose Your Own Adventure-style romance-based story about the first four planets in the solar system for my Astronomy class. I'm telling you this because I published it on a side blog on Tumblr if you would like to read it:
          https://fictionforthecause.tumblr.com/post/640500652650512384/start
          
          The MC uses gender-neutral pronouns and isn't physically described so go nuts.

Hate that the cringiest thing we've written is the most popular, y'all please stop reading it so we can't take it down BAHDNSN

Happy Pride y'all, from your strange, distant queer writers 
          
          

Friendly reminder:
          
          Balsam from Dracaena is a 7 ft tall black man.
          
          Elira is non-binary (using they/them pronouns) and is 5'9.
          
          Do what you will with that :)

I love your stories and I plan to read more in the future. Please don't delete any of these rare gems. Keep up with the good work.

Hello! Thought I'd give some general updates:
          
          -Black Cypress is taking longer to heavy edit, so we'll be republishing the original in full and when the time comes to re-upload it there will be a "new" story where you can read the updated version. There will be heavy story and design changes, but hopefully more legible and comprehensible. 
          
          -Mary is transitioning more to editing the new stories rather than writing them, so expect more solo story work
          
          -We'll be going on hiatus to bring you guys something good (hopefully) so meanwhile, we suggest reading our other works. 
          
          -Catfishing is going to stay as a permanent hiatus, neither of us feels particularly inclined to edit it and are a bit squeamish to read it. 
          
          I hope you lovelies are doing well and hopefully, the stress of the year will be over soon.

Hey guys. Loved your story, hope I can get to read another great story from you, Thank you❤️

Oop, apparently the site being down earlier messed up today's update, new chapters of Dracaena are up
