First three book's pages should be cleaned up all nice! The Itch.io PDFs and EPUBs will be updated to match the site samples tomorrow. <3

Had to fix some links that we fucked up. In good news, we have shiny new updated covers! Later, we're going to work on downsizing some images so that they load better, I think.

Some of the novel imgs are going to be missing for a hot minute; we have to go do something, but we'll fix the links as soon as we can! Made a mess of things because we made a hundred versions of every cover while figuring out the optimal file size and type, oops. Going to replace everything with jpgs of the right size.

Missing imgs should be restored! Going to slowly chip away at replacing the other images on the site. <3

We hope it's not too rude to hop on over here to ask, but since you're a helpful resource on text readability, we wondered if we could ask you if you think drop caps aid or hinder the readability of a text block in any way? We're trying to ask some dyslexic friends and acquaintences for input on this.

I personally think they do hinder the readability since they (for me) visually detatch the first letter of a word from that word. but as long as its not like every paragraph i think it should be fine! ^^ it just might take a second longer to read

For now, the text change is just on the main site. If we like it, we'll port it over to the story pages as well.

We've been using justified-aligned text for our 'site because we're anxious about neatness and had "justified is industry standard" drilled into us in college. But . . . we're going to try ragged left for a little bit, and see if we're okay with that. So far for the moment, it at least doesn't feel bad. That's nice. We know this is more accessible anyway.
