Thank you very much, that's extremely helpful! You're completely right about the ratings and the nutshells, and I've already adjusted them as you suggested. I'll also add wordcounts and excerpts ASAP, and give background info in blog articles - more excellent ideas. :-)

Heh, yeah, sadly Tom Catte occured to me too late. Maybe I can write something completely different that under the name at some point. It'd be a shame to let it go to waste! *g*

Too bad about your review site... I know about Dear Author and several others, and have applied to the goodreads m/m romance group's reviewing program. I'm going to look for additional sites by checking out goodreads reviewers as soon as I get the chance!

Thank you for being so encouraging, too; I'm trying to be all cool and collected about it all, but it doesn't always work. ;-)

Late to the party, sorry about that! (Computer not behaving, internet going down and phone refusing to open Livejournal. I just saw the preview of the notification email from LJ that you had posted something and figured that that’s what my work computer is for then!)

Wohooooooo!!! This is so awesome!! *bringing out the confetti and pom-poms* ^________^ So excited for you and so excited to read everything!

I like the website. It feels very welcoming. ^^

Yay! Thank you so much for your enthusiasm, babe. :-) This really is very exciting.

I'm very glad the website appeals to you, too, and especially that it feels welcoming! I changed it completely several times and am quite happy with what I ended up. But then at some point, it becomes hard to look at it objectively...
