I was wondering if u were ever going to update Cross my palm with silver at all? I only ask because I dreamt about it today I'm actually obsessed. It's such a good story and your writing is amazing!! Just wanting to know if you're gonna a come back to it <3
THANM YOU FOR WAITING
I want to write it too, but I'm stuck!!!! There's one part of the chapter that's written and cleanly wrapped, but it's too short for a normal chapter, and the next part of Naomie at the party (at the derby) is just ??? what's going on @ myself
i know you probably get this question asked a lot (and i donāt mean to be another annoying bugger) but will cross my palm ever be picked up again? whatever the answer is, i just wanted to say how much i enjoyed it even after rereading it an unhealthy number of times!! your writing is beautiful and i love love love noticing the small things in between the dialogue and scenes. thank you! <3
because you said this to me i guess im gonna update in the next week ā” (ćį“ćāæ) it's my favourite thing to hear about ppl's experiences reading my stories!

for some reason (like always lol!) i had the sudden urge to reread cross my palm with silver and something new stuck out to me, and i just wanted to share that i thought it was cool that no matter how many times i reread something new will always stick out or I'll just experience again but always new yk? but yeah love the story and your writing and I hope you're doing okay <33
thank you, I love hearing this!!! it's absolutely mind blowing that people are rereading cross, and enjoying it even on their second, third, etc. reads. what was new for you this time? what was new every other time? im so curious!!
Hey I love your cross my palms with silver story so much! I was wondering if youāre planning on carrying it on or have you stopped?š itās my favourite š
Hey, thanks for reading!! I definitely havenāt stopped cross my palm, Iām just crazy busy rn. Like at least half the next chapter is written. In fact, hereās an excerpt!!
āā
cross my palm with silver (line their pockets with good fortune)chapter v, excerpt:
āāĀ
Because there, stood within the shadow of a broken wall of bricks, was Naomie Young. Her hair was a fierce black halo, wilder than Grace had ever seen it, and her eyes were two black holes; looking into them felt like entering an abyss, lightless and unfathomably deep. Her pale moon face was a cold, hollow thing, completely empty of expression. Grace did not believe in the supernatural but Naomie seemed, right then and there, to be something beyond human. It was as if a terrible spirit had taken over her mortal body, or as if she had herself become some distant, nebulous creature.Ā
For a short, fervid moment, Grace vividly believed all of Naomie's claims of being a witch.Ā
-----Ā
āNaomie,ā Grace finally sighed. She offered a hand out to the girl and, when Naomie grasped it, pulled her up to her feet. They stood next to the unconscious man, close enough for their skirts to whisper against each other. Graceās eyes fixed on the wounds on Naomieās face. āYouāre hurt.ā
She ghosted the back of her hand over Naomieās bruising cheek and tenderly brushed a thumb under the wet cut along her lower lip. āTommy will kill me,ā she murmured, just to fill the silence.
Naomie snorted. āHe doesnāt have the right.āĀ
Grace was silent for another long moment, her lashes lowering. And then, finally, she said, āThank you.ā
āOf course,ā Naomie answered easily, dimpling sweetly at her. She reached out and grabbed Graceās hand. āWeāre friends, arenāt we?ā
āYes,ā said Grace. She looked onto Naomieās lovely little face; her body felt numb all over, her mind like a vacant room, but her heart squeezed hard in her chest. Under the cover of her skirt, her fingers tightened around the hand in hers. āOf course.ā
āā
āNaomie,ā Tommy called, low and warning. He was clearly getting frustrated with Naomieās stonewalling. Grace might almost have worried for her, except that she could still see his thumb stroking idly along her jaw.Ā
At this, a frown came upon Naomieās brows. āWhat, Thomas?ā she demanded, turning serious. She dropped the evasively lighthearted tone that sheād put on. āWhat will you do if you know? Track him down and cut him up? Kill him? And why? Because he treats women badly? Or maybe because he got a hit in on me?āĀ
Tommy said nothing, but the muscles in his cheek were visibly bunching up. Unease stirred in Graceās chest. What was Naomie doing? Tommy had been angry for her, at first, but now it looked as if he was fast becoming angry with her. Naomie was courting danger, and Grace couldnāt quite tell why.
"Well, let me tell you this, Thomas. You canāt kill this man.ā
āI canāt?ā he asked, silky and dangerous. His thumb stilled on Naomieās face. Graceās breath was a thick stone caught in her throat. āAnd why is that?ā
āBecause Iāve read it,ā Naomie declared. Grace had no idea what this meant, but Naomie sounded bold as brass. Like she didnāt notice that the hand cradling her jaw could just as easily twist and wrap around her neck. āA portent. It doesnāt matter who kills him; that man cannot die anytime soon, or else a disaster will descend upon you. And not a small one, either.ā
Coming from anyone else, this would have sounded like a threat. Tommy remained silent for a long time, his lashes low. Graceās hand groped for the purse still hanging from her shoulder, the feeling of the gun inside grounding her.
āNo time soon, eh?ā he said, sounding pensive.
āNo time soon,ā agreed Naomie, with a quick nod that dislodged his hand.
I know you guys were looking for the next chapter of FNS and not a rewrite, but I honestly didnāt have a clue where the story was headed except for some vague floating thoughts on what might be cool to see. Every time I tried to retcon the random details Iād thrown into the story to make sense, the explanations I had to come up with to force everything to logic properly were super convoluted, which led to more and more logic holes that required more convoluted explanation until it just became a mess.Ā
Things I had to retcon in this unwieldy fashion: literally everything about the snail stations, Lās half-hearted pursuit of Sakura, the Whammy boys, BB, the little siblings, the dead parents, how Sakura became a famous assassin, the mechanism to keep loose lips shut ā the list goes on. At some point, I knew I would hit a complete dead end, but I was still attached to the plot. So I decided it was best just to start over.
Will this new version take a billion and a half years for me to write and and for you to read again? Well, yeah... But this would have been true for the original version, and for Sol Invictus, and for Firefly, and for La Conflagrazione, etc. I just donāt have the time or energy that I did back when I was starting university. Not to mention my laptop recently went caput and now I have to do everything on my phone or a temporarily borrowed laptop. I want to keep writing, though. Of course I do. I just need more time between chapters to get things of quality out. So keep cheering in your sweet little hearts for toraffles to get shit figured out and something will come out eventually!
