Happy for Now | windy city repub cancelled, seven rue, sprayed edges, joe arden and so much | Feb Romancelandia @HappyforNow | Uploaded February 2024 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
I need y'all to promise me you can behave the next two months. The first two months of 2024 have felt like multiple months worth of romancelandias in one. We did a full round up of almost every kind of issue. Cancelled publishing deals, old bullies showing back up, small shop drama, Ai art, and more.
Special thanks to @ThisPastRomance and @meowthvader2192 for supplying voice over skills for this month.
