I write as Silver Birch over on Sycophant Hex.

I love HG/SS and HP/DM but have been known to dabble in a Snarry now and again.

The Problem with Purity, a 600K HG/SS fic (with HP/DM) is complete! It is 62 chapters long and posted in its entirety here on FF and on Ashwinder. I'm delighted to announce that it won the SS/HG award for Best Epic!

I'm woefully behind on my review responses, but please know that I appreciate every review I receive even if I don't get the chance to answer it.

Reviews and concrit are always welcome.

My map of all my readers still lives on in my bedroom. I took pictures of it, and stuck it all in my (poor, neglected) LJ. Take a look here: http:///5253.html. _

Louyena has been kind enough to begin translating my fic into French! If FF doesn't eat the link, here it is: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7672404/1/The_Problem_With_Purity. Thanks, Louyena!

Aschenbroedel has started to translate my fic into German! Once again, if FF doesn't eat the link, here it is: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11550081/1/Das-Problem-mit-Reinheit. Thanks, Aschendbroedel!

Thanks, as always, to everyone who has provided fantastic feedback to me through reviews and PMs over the years. You've all helped shape me as an author, and I really appreciate it.
