Ohhhh, I like the layout you've got! Feels like not enough sites use full-width layouts or make them work well.

I so feel you on the unarchived library of fic. <.< I have over a dozen oneshots I haven't uploaded to AO3 yet and at this point I don't even know if I want to bother with waiting to backdate them, might just let them start collect dust right away, the writing is so oooold and not as good in places.

Thank you very much! I didn't realise it was that unusual, I've just been making things up as I go along design-wise xD

Heh, I haven't put these on AO3 either and I've decided I probably won't - it was only when I lit on the idea of starting my own fanworks archive that I started to come around to the idea of archiving my oldest, cringiest stuff (after flirting with the idea of putting it on SquidgeWorld). For some reason, situating it in a Personal Archive of Me feels fine, and I think also because there's a little bit of friction associated with accessing the site, it doesn't feel like I'm putting my old stuff under a spotlight xD

But the drawback is that I'm trying to add that and my newer works to the site, which over time comes to more than 100 fics, and I keep making more 😅🙈

I can understand that. :0 Maybe I'll do the same TBH, we'll see. I've already shared my oldest fannish writing that isn't extremely personal and private, so I feel like the cat's already out of the bag haha, but it's an interesting idea!
