Before I could draw, my main artistic pursuit was writing stories. I used to be very insecure about it, but I've got it figured out now—in time for me to not write all that much anymore. Not that I don't still enjoy it, I just have so much else I want to work on first. I say I get one story a year out these days.

I've only elected to bring forth the stories I still really enjoy or are true to my characters. Older ones can be seen on mari_v2 and mari_v3 on archives. The former are my older and frankly more embarrassing ones, while the latter, I'm happier with, but not to the point where I want that to be the first thing someone reads from me. Regardless, they are still online because I had to write shitty ones before I got to write better ones.
