Housekeeping
Hello all!
I know I've fallen behind on pretty much everything, modding, legendland, etc. I've had issues with my power and internet, as well as just hit a rough place in the semester in real life.
I'm in the part of the semester where I really need to start reviewing for the end of year law school exams, so my internet activity is going to be slower for the next few months. I also have to reapply to be a guardian ad litem, and they just changed the payment scheme at work so now I only get paid for the amount of hours I bill to clients, instead of the amount of hours I'm actually working. In legal practice, you can only bill clients for things that you need legal training to do, ex: working on pleadings, writing letters etc. So now I pretty much have to work double time to get paid the same, because I no longer get paid for all the other tasks I do like make copies, mail letters, and so on.
Basically, I'm busy and my brain is kind of mush when I get home, so I'm doing my best - but things like retagging will get done when they get done, and posts might be in the moderation queue for a day or so before I get to them.
Let me take a moment now to say thank you to those who have been picking up the slack on my communities, particularly Lisa and Bex. <3
All that said, I've been trying to get my personal journal in order before I turn my attention back to my communities. To that end, my profile has been updated and now features some of the lovely gifts some of you made me on V-Day, and my sidebar has been updated. I also currently have some AO3 and DW invite codes if anyone wants one for either place. First come, first served.
I have been moving fic over to AO3, and AO3 now has about 2/3rds of everything I've written, and I hope to finish transferring everything by the end of this week so that AO3 will be a complete archive. The only fic I won't be moving to AO3 is Castle in the Air. I took a lot of my original characters and concepts from that fic (Shadow Weaver, Ingram, Fafnir the Dragon Rider, the concept of a sister trapped between two brothers) and worked them into my original novel, Woven Shadows [working title], and if it ever gets picked up I will consequently be removing Castle in the Air from the internet.
Once that's done, I'm going to fix my Master List, crosspost some things I need to crosspost, trim my flist and my icons, and then my journal will be spic and span.
So that's where I am. I am slowly but surely getting it done. Once all that is done, I'll get my ff.net account back up to date now that the LotS category is safe (we think).
