I'll be doing some work on the site today. It's been hectic and I've not had chance to do a fandom friday post. Will try to do one next week.

This year has started off as great as the last one.
Does my blog home page display properly in edge? https://bright-eyes.neocities.org/dwn/blog/index.html It's supposed to have a new post

linked onto the home page called Fandom Friday Introduction, but it is not showing on mine. (Shows up in Firefox, though...)

It's finally showing up properly!

Well, it appears that the virus is upping the ante for another round of infections. TBH, I don't think that it is just that there is a new strain, I think people have become very complacent about it over the Yule period. When I took Max out over Christmas there were more people around than before and it bigger groups, too.

Not as cold today, so Max was able to go out for a proper walk.
Good riddance, 2020! (But I've been saying that to every year since 2018...)

So, I've added a little blog to DWN. I do have a wordpress blog on my paid hosting, but I hate wordpress. I can't ever make it mine when it comes to layouts because I don't know how to code layouts for wordpress (there are too many things which you have to include - I can only just make a layout for proboard forums and that's only really modifying what someone else has already done....)

Would have preferred something with a header and sidebar, though as then I can add things to it, so this is nice... I just need to customize it. It's important to be able to customize stuff because it then makes it yours. There are too many social media platforms where you can't do that these days. Even with myspace, one of the things which made it a good network was that you could make it yours.

This can't be done with most social media sites these days. Even tumblr is quite limited if you don't know how the coding works.

One thing I have noticed lately (with youtubers and some bloggers) is that they try to get money or gifts out of people by posting posting links to amazon wishlists, gofundme, etc. I understand that money is tight. I've never had what I would call a great income, but it just seems wrong to me, especially when they show videos of themselves with excessive amounts of make-up, and other items, or bragging about going

to expensive concerts, days out, having custom made cosplay items, etc...

This is the economy of amazon's book selling at the moment. Sell used books at the same price as a new book.
I also found, at long last, the UF author whose book I really hated because it was really misogynistic and threw hatred towards Wicca and paganism. According to Fantastic Fiction, he's only had two books published in the UF genre. I wonder why?
bright-eyes's avatar bright-eyes 4 years ago

Fortunately, I didn't buy the book, as it was from the library and I can now apologise to another UF author for getting confused and thinking it was him.

Today, I am looking for the Otherworld book covers. Trying to find the nice ones which the UK editions were originally published in appears to be impossible. Might have to scan them myself. (When Twilight was made into a film, they were were reprinted with this awful cover that made them look like similar books to Twilight and gosh they were awful... The original UK ones were much nicer.)
Here's a contrast - 25 years ago, a tween/teen range fiction book would have cost between £2.99 - £4.99, depending on the length of it. Shorter books were cheaper. It was possible for kids to buy books with their pocket money, even if they had to save up for the more expensive ones. Now, similar books cost £9.99 or more, a price which even adults baulk at.

One other thing I've noticed is how sellers on Amazon vastly over price books now (going over the rrp for in print books.)

One thing which I don't like about Kelley Armstrong's e-books is that they are usually made up of short stories and novellas which are published several times in different formats. It's hard to know if you've got everything and then find that you've ended up buying it twice. (and I hate reading on screen, anyway...)

Don't know why they don't just simplify things and publish them in one print book.

The worst happens to be with the YA books because most of them could have been published as a single standalone, given the length of them.

It's been really cold here for the past couple of days (and yesterday it was raining) so my stomach is complaining about it. It's always been prone to getting 'cold' in it...

Warm drinks and wear more layers or warmer clothes? Also, definitely keep your feet warm with socks+slippers+both, IBS tends to be triggered by cold feet and you’ll feel that pain in your gut.

bright-eyes's avatar bright-eyes 4 years ago

It doesn't really matter what you do because it is that cold. Anything temperature that is 5oC or lower just cuts through what you wear.
