Dan & Mab's Furry Adventures
Dan and Mab's Furry Adventures (DMFA) began in 1998, when Amber promised a shrine of sorts to anyone on Furcadia who could find a particular song for her. When a friend who went by the name of Daniel Ti'Fiona found the song in question, Amber made good on her promise and created the shrine. As a joke, she added a sign proclaiming "Coming soon: the Misadventures of Daniel Ti'Fiona, the comic!" However, Daniel took this seriously and continually prodded her to actually start the comic until she finally gave in. The first comic was posted on the website in 1999.

Initially featuring Daniel and Miss Mab, the cast of the comic soon expanded, including both friends of Amber's on Furcadia and characters of her own creation. Later on in 1999, the comic fell into a hiatus for about a year. Amber resumed comic production in 2000, and the comic has been updating steadily ever since. Besides the main story line DMFA features "Questions of the readers" strips, in which Mrs. Williams clarifies frequently asked questions about the DMFA universe and the webcomic's making. DMFA is hosted by Xepher.net, accompanied by its own readers' forum. It was co-hosted on The Katbox from 2013 through 2019.

Other projects
Amber occasionally creates art for her brother Darkmoon's site, The Inverted Dungeon, as well as comics for the webcomic they co-created, CVRPG. In addition, she has taken to "chibifying" the cast of the webcomic Jack and many members of its forum.
