ps i haven’t used tumblr since like 2012 so idk how best to tag people or anything. would love the authors to see these though!

@not-close-to-straight @milominderbindered @proseandpulse cc the other authors i can’t find on here!

They are in Traditional Chinese though, since that's what I'm most familiar with, and because it actually doesn't exist anywhere as a digital version, licensed or not. Plus, I wanted to have my phone's dictionary easily reachable whenever I had to look up words. I also like to highlight sentences so I can live tweet (scream and yell) to myself!

Converting Simplified to Traditional Chinese is actually very time-consuming, because so many words in Traditional overlap with the way Simplified writes it (e.g. 发 means 'hair' or the word for 'to happen; become; launch; produce, etc,' while in Traditional it's 髮 and 發 respectively). So I had to catch a lot of bugs 錯別字... For all nine volumes... 🫠 I have tried my best to correct all of them, though! 🙏🏼

This was how I read TGCF Serial ver :) Here's a brief look at them ↓

The Midwife Fables + Short Story Now on Ko-Fi!

That's right! No longer am I a slave to Amazon! You can now get the first two Midwife Fables novellas -- The Worth of Hair and Of Needles and Pins -- along with the short story The Midwife and the Lindworm on Ko-fi! Digital epub file only!

The Midwife and the Lindworm - FREE!

The Midwife has worked on her share of unusual births over the years—from foxes to royalty to the Gods themselves. One of the stranger births she assisted was a queen who delivered twins: one a boy, the future king, and one a serpent, known as The Lindworm. Now, almost twenty years later, the queen has called upon The Midwife again—this time, to rid the castle of The Lindworm once and for all. Devouring maidens from across the land, it seems the monster’s thirst for blood cannot be slaked. But the sensible Midwife has no patience for histrionic queens or fae monsters. She intends to settle this. All of it.

The Worth of Hair - The First Midwife Fable

The Midwife has been summoned to a decaying seaside kingdom to assist with a royal birth. Upon arrival she finds herself trapped in a strange, dying land. The kitschy trappings of the Prince’s fan club are everywhere, but one of the adoring fans conceals a darker secret. Death hangs heavy in the air, wielding a twisted blade forged of tears of the broken hearted, threatening the life of the royal baby. The Midwife has defeated her share of monsters, but how will she handle a kingdom cursed by the sea itself? No matter what happens, The Midwife swears she will deliver the baby, save the kingdom, and get the smell of dead fish out of her apron—even if it kills her.

Of Needles and Pins - The Second Midwife Fable

A visit to the deep woods turns deadly for The Midwife, when she finds her friend, The Grandmother, dead along with the old woman’s red hood-wearing granddaughter. The culprit? A big bad wolf with an appetite for human flesh. But this familiar story rings hollow for The Midwife. Instead, her eyes are locked on the cast of characters who have made their home in the tiny village nearby: The Woodsman who can’t stand the sight of blood. The Mother who has lost so much in so little time. And The Washerwomen, three old crones with hearts as dark as the forest itself. With the help of her assistant, The Mermaid’s Sister, The Midwife must untangle the roots of this deadly fairy tale and bring the true culprit to light. Before she finds herself as the wolf’s next meal.

And don't forget! If you read and enjoy The Midwife Fables be sure to leave a review on Goodreads, Storygraph, Tumblr, or your website of choice!

Now that Radish is officially dead, here is a link to all of the officially translated novel of Roxana or How to Protect the Female Lead's Older Brother by Kin with the italics! You can now only officially support the novel on Tapas. But I hate that my free chapters are only open for 72 hours and that the last like 77 episodes you have to pay for unlike Radish. So I copied all of the novel into docs and epubs in the style of the physical Korean novels. Volumes 1-4 plus a version with all of the volumes in one with a table of contents.

Now that I've got it all converted to EPUB, I can finally enjoy the overhaul project for Trigun + Trigun Maximum on my Kindle!

I was concerned about a drop in quality, but it's perfectly readable and I am so thrilled I don't have to hold my large tablet to read this masterpiece.

I did have to remove a lot of the fun "extras" and bonus content to meet the minimum 200mb requirement for sending docs to Kindle, but I'm just here for the story.

Big shout out to the team at @trigun-manga-overhaul for all of their impressive work on this project! I can't wait to read the entire translation.

As always, please support the original artist, Yasuhiro Nightow, whose imagination brought one of my favorite comfort characters to life on paper. Without Vash the Stampede, I know I wouldn't be the same person I am today.

I already own the physical manga... otherwise, I'd buy it all over again in a heartbeat!

Love & Peace,
