Updates & Reorganization

I have a day off of work, so I’ll be periodically making updates and changes to the blog’s pages today. There’s quite a bit that I want to do, so I probably won’t be completely finished with it by tonight. However, I will make sure that everything is working before I log off. Thanks for your patience and understanding!

Alright, I’m done for the night. I have updated the Tags Index and Series & Connected Fics pages to reflect everything that has been added the last few months. I tried to double-check everything, but if you have any problems with either one – or anything else, obviously – please don’t hesitate to let me know. I’ll fix it as soon as I possibly can. Again, thanks so much for your patience through this!

MISCELLANEOUS:

The blog finished 2017 with the Twelve Days of Christmas Event, which ran from December 14 to December 25, and a New Years Eve Event on December 31. 

Thanks for another great month!

I’m Back!

I’m finally back from my holiday adventures and professional conference! Everything went really well on that front, but coming back to this blog resulted in a bit of confusion. 

Let me start by saying that I’m really sorry for the unanticipated hiatus! I had everything queued up until I was scheduled to be back, but I mistakenly set it up for January 2017 instead of January 2018. Because of this, obviously nothing got posted. I have readjusted the queue to reflect dates coming up and will double check everything until I get used to typing 2018. Again, sorry for the confusion!

January 2018

28 29 30 31

The calendar above indicates this month’s events.

Due to personal and professional responsibilities, I will be in and out of town quite a bit through the first week or so of January. Because of this, there will be a limited posting schedule. There will not be a hiatus.

Barring any extenuating circumstances, the rest of the month will be business as usual with two to three recs posted per day.

End the year on a high note with a few New Year’s Eve fics featuring fluff, fluff, and more fluff!

On a separate note, I want to thank all of you for sticking with me. I know things have kind of been touch-and-go from time to time due to my insane schedule lately, but I really appreciate the support that I’ve received. The last ten months of running this blog have been great and I’m really looking forward to continuing this journey with all of you in 2018. Happy New Year!

With family, friends, and the boyfriend in town for the next week, plus a professional conference during the week after that, my time on Tumblr will be fairly limited for a little while. Just a heads up!

This applies to this blog as well. There won’t be a hiatus – I have everything queued up already (although the amount of fic recs will be limited due to time constraints) – but I’ll only be on to check on things sporadically.

Today marks the second to last day of the Twelve Days of Christmas Event with Christmas Eve fic recs! More fluff and family, plus friends to lovers and a little holiday magic are on their way! Happy reading!

Posting Schedule

I will be changing the posting schedule from morning and afternoon to afternoon and evening, Eastern Standard Time. This works best with my schedule at the moment, at least until we get through the craziness of the holiday season and I’m done preparing for and presenting at the conference that I’m attending in early January. I just wanted you all to be aware! Thanks for your understanding and happy reading 🙂
