Hey everyone! Felt like the blog needed tidying. I cleared out a lot of stuff I couldn’t stand to look at anymore (even for posterity) and deleted a lot of teenage whinging because that has nothing to do with art! I’m going to focus this gallery/fiction repository more tightly on what I create rather than my life.

It took me like a week to decide which of WordPress’s themes I was going to tweak into something I could use, but eventually I decided I liked this one. No big banner to get in the way of content, sidebar on the left instead of the right just for something different, and I changed the CSS to make the background more soothing to read for longer periods of time (as I do when I’m editing, or just when I go back to read my own fanfic). I’ve also added easy navigation buttons to the things most people come to see: my travel blogs, and my cosplay.

There’s just a couple of art assets that I haven’t filled in yet, but they’re not essential to the workings of the site so I figured you can have access to my stuff again.

Feel free to comment on what you like or don’t like about the site!

Decided to rewrite The Tactician and the Heiress because at this moment it sucks majorly and I’d like to have a better first segment for the story that’s currently culminating in something the quality of Anima’s Seal. I don’t think it will take very long; the chapters are much, much shorter than the ones, say, for Liz’s story, although I will almost certainly expand them greatly because that’s what I do. So… quick writing project, I think, interspersed with videogames because Astebreed is addictive (must get more achievements!).

Just a quick note that I am creating a WIKI. So anything in the character pages about Adhemlenei folks (and geography and culture and anything else) is pretty quickly going to be out of date and if you want anything UP to date you should probably visit the WIKI although I just started it two days ago so there’s not much there and filling it in is quite time-consuming and brain-draining. However, I shall prevail, because it’s super-easy to use and it makes me happy. : ) I am hoping it will enable me to write a coherent plot and possibly construct a series of novels that I’m happy with. I’m already elbow deep in story guts : P the Lost Boys are no longer lost, they were just apprenticed off to different countries because they were being such a pain at home or something. I feel it makes more sense than overly-coincidental pixies.

EDIT: I also have a wiki for my group project, over at http://riftedriders.wikidot.com/
