Update: 8th June 2015

I've changed the theme I'm using at the website. I think it's much cleaner, so I'm very happy with it. Opinions are always welcome, however, so let me know what you think.

As well as that I've taken some advice from the wonderful [personal profile] moonvoice and I'm updating my categories in order to show the word count for each of the posts. That's working alongside an status category, to show whether or not the stories I'm complete, and these categories are shown next to the stories on the archive pages for each of the collections. The tags also show, so you can see who's in each of the stories as well.

One slight issue I am having in the crossposter I used, which may mean I have to stop posting my fiction at Dreamwidth. For those of you who might want to read me here, or at LiveJournal, I do have RSS feeds. These can be for all the posts or for specific collections. I have the whole list on the RSS feed page.

Pretty! I like it much better than the old theme. Did you change anything with the menu? It looked really cluttered to me in the old theme, but this is nice and crisp.

I'm really going to appreciate the complete/incomplete status categories as well, I think. I hope they'll be as useful as you want them to be!

I thought so. It's just the difference between the two themes on this point is massive.

Good luck! It does sound like a lot of work! But at least you can add categories and tags in batches, right? Hopefully that'll help with figuring out what you've got left to work on. ^_^

Yay! <3 I'm glad. ^_^

*nods*

Whoot! Congrats! *goes look* Hmm... Looks pretty good! It took me a couple of entries to figure out that the series parts wasn't related to whether the piece was completed, but I'm not sure whether there's any way to deal with that. You write so much it's always going to be a bit difficult to collect in a way that works for every reader, though. Does that help somewhat?

*offers hug* I know. I think it's impressive you've got it working as well as you have, actually. <3 It's not a platform that's meant for this.
