Checking in...
Hi, folks. If you missed my last post, and have been wondering where I've been, two weeks ago I moved permanently and full-time to Dreamwidth. You can find me here from now on.
I am stopping by for a couple reasons. First, as promised, I've been plugging along with my fic revisions project, and I've put up a new version of Evil Me. It's two chapters shorter, and I'm slightly tickled that it's now exactly 10,000 words. No particular reason for that - I just noticed I was at 9,999 and it was too good to pass up. :) I'm rather happy with this revision - aside from cutting out nearly a thousand words (much of which was unnecessary rehashing of what we already know), I added in a few little details that I think improve the logic a bit, which is always a good thing.
Next up is When in Rome, which seems incredibly daunting, because I want to throw out essentially the last two chapters (which is, um, half the fic), but I don't have anything to replace them with, which means actually writing a story. Not sure how I feel about that.
My second reason for posting is because my paid account will be expiring in two days. (Sorry for those of you who read this already at DW, it's gonna be mostly a repeat.) Unless I do something stupid like try to edit it, my layout should remain as is, so you shouldn't actually see much change if you're coming back to read old posts on my LJ.
The one thing I wanted to mention, and kindly ask your help with, is pictures. I have been lazy over the years and had been uploading a lot of my pics to ScrapBook instead of taking the extra step and putting them on Photobucket, which means that they'll all be deleted when the account expires. I spent one whole evening uploading everything to Photobucket and replacing the links. (Unfortunately, I forgot to change the "link to" link, so while the pictures should still appear where they're supposed to, you won't be able to click to view them at Photobucket, lol. Oh, well, y'all will just have to live with that.) I think I got everything, but if you're ever browsing my LJ for whatever reason and you see a missing graphic, please let me know and I'll fix the link!
I hope everyone is doing well. I am still sort of following my flist, since I still like knowing what's going on with all of you, but I have definitely scaled back my LJ time. If you've realized you miss me, you can follow the instructions here to add me as an RSS feed, and my posts will show up in your flist.
