Nothing big. I gave the guestbook a new layout. Go check it out, and sign it while you're there. lol

This one's mainly for Pawn, ladies, but there's also a general announcement concerning all my sites.

First off, let's deal with Steiner. I updated the links page and deleted over twelve inactive links, including three affiliates (I've gone from seven to four :[). Most sadly I've lost Eileen's tribute to Steiner and Airi's tribute to Garnet. If either of you bring back your sites, let me know! I'll be your affiliate no matter what. On that same note, if you know of any FF9 sites I don't have linked, feel free to send them my way! Affiliation for Pawn has also been reopened for obvious reasons.

Ok, now for the entire network. As you may have noticed, updates have been ...behind the scenes, but nonexistent for the most part. My life has been pretty crazy lately, and it's only going to get worse until after Christmas. I hesitate to put my sites on a hiatus, because like today, I might feel like doing something small and miniscule, but big updates will not be made until 2009! I will continue putting whatever updates I make here in the meantime.

The projects page on Sharkboy is a little outdated, but I warned you that many of those projects might not get done. Here are the two biggest projects I have planned for 2009:

1) A shrine to Auron from Final Fantasy X with kuchren. I'm really excited about this! We've planned out the site, got the layout made, and all that's left is content. I'll start seriously adding to it in January.

2) A tribute to Ichabod Crane from Irving's ...Sleepy Hollow and the film adaptation. There need to be more literary tributes, and this is something I've been wanting to do for a while.

Anyway, thanks for bearing with me through my little drought, and as always I'll keep you updated!

Edit - I almost forgot! This update also announces the grand opening of amassment, a fansite community Masao and I started. I'll add it to the network as soon as I find a place to list it.

Pawn is back up and running at its new address with a new layout, new scans from Alexandra, and a new editorial note on the future of the site in the site section.

I know some of you guys may have heard me talk about closing that shrine, but when it came down to it I couldn't give my first site the axe. I'm really excited I decided to keep it though. Be sure to check out that new ...erm note, Static?, for more info.

The project has also been added to Sharkboy's shrines page.
