Updates

Alright. I've gotten a few messages about updating my Caleb Danvers story since I've put it out and I'm actually kinda surprised by the amount of reads that the story has received. It definitely makes me feel good but...ha ha. I wasn't expecting it.

So, I'm trying to wring out another chapter for that one as well as my Everlasting story. And yes. I know I've been telling you guys FOREVER that I'm going to update Everlasting but I've been so bogged down in first-year college stuff that I just haven't gotten around to it. I'm sincerely sorry about that and I'll try my best to make it up to you in the next one.

The Caleb one will probably come out before Everlasting just because it's easier and less time consuming to write those. Hopefully you don't all hate me at the moment. LoL. I'll try my very best to get the next ones out as soon as I can! Thank you guys so much for your cooperation and understanding. You rock.

Sorry, sorry, sorry!

I'm sooooo sorry you guys! I had planned on updating Everlasting a whole lot sooner than this. I should have had five more updates out already but getting ready for college and all this summer stuff is about to kill me.

I PROMISE I will have another update of Everlasting out SOON! I promise, promise, promise!

Missing Story Chapter

No, I'm not going to be one of those prissy wanna-be's and complain about how this whole site is going down the drainjust because they changed the layout. -rolls eyes-

I'm just informing my readers that it's probably either just me or some technical difficulty with the system but most of my chapters for Everlasting and even some for my other Peter Pan story, Left To Wonder, are missing.

Thankfully I've learned from my mistakes in the past and saved every chapter elsewhere so...no worries if they're completely gone. I'll just...reupload them. ^_^

I'm not going to bug the "makers" now because I know how much crap they're already getting over stupid things. So, I might give it a week or so and then, if things haven't smoothed out and my chapters haven't appeared yet, I'll shoot them a message and see what can be done.

If it's all a matter of just doing them again, I'm fine with that. You gotta be prepared for the mishaps. Same as in life. LoL.

So, yes. I'm sorry to those of you who never got to read the latest chapter but I can assure you I'll have it up again soon. Thank you guys for understanding! You're the best!

Revising

Yes. I said it. I'm holding off on another chapter to Everlasting because I'm revising previous chapters. I went back and read through them one day and found a TON of incongruencies. Things didn't match up. Something would happen in one chapter and then, a few chapters down the road, something would happen that completely contradicted what happened. And I've also had messages sent to me that tell me the setting's a bit confusing. And I'll be the first to admit that it is. It wasn't my intention but...it's happened so I'm working on that as well. So, sorry for the enormous delay. I'll be writing the next once I get this done. But on a lighter note, GUESS WHAT?!?! I placed in our school pageant. Second runner up. Yeah, yeah. It's not great but hey...it's something. ^_^ So yeah. I'll have the next chapter up as soon as I can!

For Heaven's Sake (Views On New Quizilla Site)

Alright. Here's my view on this new site thing.

Yes, I like Quizilla the way it is. However, as a web-designer (in my free time) I also realize how completely crowded and scattered and downright CONFUSING things can get. It builds and builds until it gets to the point where you almost have no choice but to start over.

As for the design of the new site, I like it. My favorite part is the navigation settings at the top of the page (the drop-down menus) and how they really organized the information instead of having it just be a frenzy of clicking...

However, I, like many other commentors, agree that it needs a little more color and probably some attention-grabbing pictures or logos or something. It's just a little to black and white for my tastes.

Now, as for those of you who are saying that change is BAD, we should stick to the "orthodox" way of things...

Where would the world be if NOTHING ever changed? You wouldn't be able to complain about a simple DESIGN change on here. That's where we'd be. We'd be hoeing and chopping and crafting away under the rule of some crazy mad dictator.

You haven't even given the site a single, solitary chance. Remember the saying "don't judge a book by it's cover"? The same applies here. You've only seen a very SMALL amount of what's to come. It's called a PREVIEW for a reason. You don't get to see the REAL things that make up the true part of the site.

In my opinion, as long as I'm still able to write, post, and read stories/quizzes/poems/etc. easily....I'm good.

It's their site. They can do what they want. Keep complaining and I wouldn't blame them for shutting the whole operation down. It's a heck of a lot more work than needed and JUST like those of you who tell readers to not message with complaints/hate mail/etc.....you're doing the same to the creators of this site.

Think about it.
