IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

In case you missed it the last week, I have been in the process of moving the blog to WordPress following Tumblr’s announcement last week. While there is still a lot of work left to be done, I feel comfortable announcing that the blog will officially be moving to its new home and begin posting new recs this Saturday, December 15th.  I will share the link to the new site on Saturday morning, Eastern Standard Time. The site here on Tumblr will remain up and available, but all new content will be posted on WordPress.

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM THE BLOG’S NEW HOME?

All of the positives that were applicable here on Tumblr will still be present on WordPress, along with a few added benefits thrown in. 

  • All of the fic recs that were posted over the last (nearly) two years have already been imported to the new site. They will not be lost in the transition.
  • The Tags Index page, which allows for easy browsing of fic recs based on a variety of categories, has already been created and completed.
  • There is no tag limit on WordPress. This allows for a more widespread and accurate organizational system than Tumblr, which will make it easier to navigate the recs that have already been posted as well as those to come.
  • WordPress also utilizes categories, which will be featured in the sidebar alongside each page and will make it easier to browse through recs and administrative posts at a broader level.

WHAT WILL STILL BE UNDER CONSTRUCTION?

While the site will be usable, it’s important to note that it will still very much be under construction for the foreseeable future. There are quite a few things that need altered and updated in order to re-create and improve upon elements from the site here on Tumblr.

  • The formatting of every post was altered when it was imported to WordPress. I am currently in the process of fixing it, but this will take some time.
  • The tags linked within the recs will not transition to other pages on the new site. I am currently working on altering them so they eventually will but, in the meantime, if you scroll to the bottom of the recs you can click on the tags linked there to browse them on the new site.
  • I am also working on re-creating a few other pages that were on this site, which allowed readers to browse fic recs by series, author, and fandom event. 

Thank you in advance for sticking with me through this transition, as I attempt to preserve this collection of recs, as well as for your patience as I continue working on improving the new site and its organizational system. Stay tuned for the link on Saturday!
