Just a small

update to let you know about a couple of changes going on around here. I’ve updated the theme with a new one by the folks over at ThemeZilla, so I thought I’d give everyone a bit of a guided tour and a heads up that some things are still a little bit under construction.

The first page you see will still be my blog; as you can see, it’s still fairly minimal (as is my wont) and does what it says on the can. I’m still building up content for the sidebar, but eventually it’ll have a nice ‘about me’ section, as well as the usual links to other amazing people (which I will update to include all the new hotness that I’ve met over the past year or so).

The ‘Portfolio’ pages are where I’ll store free .pdf copies of stories, my occasionally updated vlogs, and whatever radio/podcast adventures I end up having. I think it looks pretty speccy at the moment, so feel free to have a look around. I’m still going through and finding neat pictures and formatting all the stories, so it may be a little while before they’re all up here, but there’s enough to get you started, anyway. I figure that most of the publications they’ve appeared in are sold out or unavailable, so there’s no harm to the lovelies that initially published them in reproducing them here (morally speaking — Legally I retain electronic rights, so I can do what I want anyhow).

Anyway, let me know what you think and if you can find any broken bits, I’d be much appreciative if you could point them out. This week will see me finally get around to judging the toothsoup prize, so keep your eyes peeled for an announcement regarding that on the 18th.

Amusingly, while my journal has gained a new skin, I lost a chunk of mine today due to a boating mishap in the middle of the river while attempting a rescue. But that story will have to wait until next time.
