As one tiny part of what my husband is doing to the site, I moved the cat photos from our own hosting to a flickr set. That option wasn’t available when the photos were first taken, but now it’s the easier way to go. If you have too much time on your hands and just can’t get enough of cat photos you’re welcome to look at them, but they’re mostly for our own viewing pleasure.

I’ve always loved wordcount progress meters and charts. They’re such fun doohickeys, and when I was working writing contracts they’re how I kept myself on course.

I can’t remember the last time a TV show actually occupied my thoughts this way. I’m hooked on the CSI “miniature killer” plot–it’s the best-scripted mystery I’ve seen in a long time.

Ah, Valentine’s Day. We never plan anything momentous; we sometimes try to do something nice, like some special chocolates or a nice dinner, but that’s about it. Otherwise we try to avoid the stress of worrying about it. Yesterday… yesterday was interesting.

Also in the vein of kvetching about reading comprehension, or maybe how observant someone is: I just love it when I get an email from someone saying they’d appreciate a link from our links directory, and even mentioning which sub-part of the directory they think they’d suit, but they apparently didn’t notice the handy little “submit new link” link right at the top of that category. Sigh…

One of the more popular things on this site has been the pdf “365 Character Questions for Writers and Roleplayers,” found via the writers’ exercises page. Every now and then when I look through our stats I find that someone new has linked to it, usually via a blog entry or forum post, because they’re answering some of the questions for their own characters or suggesting it as a resource for others.
