smallwebSomehow it's September already and the kick-off point for Small Web September has arrived! \o/
As a reminder, this is the first of five ‘check-in’/comment points that will be published during the event – you can check out the schedule and dates of these posts over on the event intro. There’s no cut-off point for commenting on these, so you can add something at any time – you also don’t need to comment on them all or do them in order! The themes are a loose guide, but all discussion is welcome.
This first post will be for introducing yourself and your project(s) and talking about what you’re planning to do during the month. Of course, there’s no obligation to stick to what you’ve set down and no-one will be checking up xD But it can be a nice thought exercise! You’re free to make the goal(s) as broad or as specific as you like – it’s totally up to you.
There’s no set format for this check-in, but here’s one you can use if you’d like (just copy-paste and replace the placeholders with your own answers in the comments):
Also, if anyone would like to answer it, here’s a discussion starter: What interests you about the small/indie web, and how did you learn about or get into it?

"under my own control and organized in a way that I personally feel makes sense."
This has resonated with me. I always felt like square peg not fitting into round hole when trying to upload something to AO3. It's a breath of fresh air to describe and collect my work how I want to. I've said this before, but you've been an inspiration to me!
"The nice thing is that I can always remind myself that if one approach doesn't work, I can always go back and arrange things differently, etc."
I redid nearly my entire site last October and it was glorious.

I really only did the big back-up when I couldn't get in touch with my old host (which has happened again - site is still online but ??? so yeaaaah)...
One of my favorite old things to do was seasonal themes, at least on the home page. I think this year will be out, but maybe next year I can do seasonal changeups at least with graphics if not more.
