It will certainly be easier to update news with this method. I’m still playing around with how well this will display my informational pages. Seems like it will be workable, and it should be easier to get around.
Not sure yet, but I may need to reinstall WordPress in its own directory, eventually. I need an index page for the warnings about the adult nature of the website — and perhaps a fork in the road to link to a simple archive of my old FAQs and midi files for which my pen name as Darkniciad is better known.
Just have to see how things go as I tweak and play around with this. Odds are that it will be a long time before the full content of the orignal site is restored. I might go through and do some quick, dirty edits of the old pages to remove my babydoll’s pictures (reason in previous post) and put that up in the meantime so the information is there.
One thing I hope to accomplish with this is an easy way to dramatically increase the amount of character information. If I can point-n-click to create new entries and add pics, I might just be able to realize my goal of putting a lot of the characters on here, with links to stories where they appear, pics, etc.
I’ll play around with a few of the information pages to see how they look, and then make the determination about what I need to do with structuring the site/reinstalling wordpress.
One thing is certain, all three websites and subsites ( Danica’s World, Les Lumens, LST3K, Laresa’s World ) will be accessed from one link — darkniciad.com. I should be able to categorize everything in the top links to have a single home page.
This might just provide a constructive distraction on those days when I’m not in a writing mood, too. At least I’ll still be doing something with my writing then, and won’t get into the vicious circle of feeling bad because I’m not producing anything.
I’m having a few down days, though thankfully I do feel like writing. I may actually do that after I finish this post. I missed the deadline at Lit to put “Barren Harvest” into the Halloween Contest, but it will still probably go up soon. Then, I’ll get back to “Lowborn” and trying to gear up for SOTM.
