Just what it says on the tin, folks. I’ve got lots of awesome new stuff to share with you.

First up, I’ve spent the last two weeks doing a major overhaul on the directory. The big things you’ll notice are the new layout and the massive amount of new sites, but I’ve made lots of other changes as well. Here’s the breakdown.

Over 500 new/old links added.

Around 100 broken, incorrect or redundant links deleted.

Several titles and warnings corrected.

Links broken down into more pages for less scrolling.

Larger headings so you can more easily find what you want.

“Other” section sorted into columns for easier reading.

Larger columns so none of the long titles wrap onto the next line.

Bigger font, much easier to read.

More contrast between background and link color.

Visited links appear a different color.

A lot of those changes seem pretty minor and I imagine most of you don’t really care, but I just felt like sharing. There’s so many little things that go into coding these pages to give you guys the best experience possible and sometimes I just feel like bragging sharing.

Next up on the list of news! New hostees!

Jesse-may, the author of the month, recently closed her domain and admitted in the interview that she was starting to regret the decision. She didn’t like transferring everything to LiveJournal but also couldn’t justify paying for a domain that wasn’t seeing much use. I had the perfect solution — hosting on my domain! So click here to visit The Truth In Lies. She’s still moving in, but soon you’ll be able to read such stories on the site as Last Summer and Fire and Ice.

The second new hostee has a similar story. Just a few days later, Diamond tweeted that she was closing down her domain and only posting to LiveJournal from now on. I suggested that if she ever missed having a site, she was welcome here. She quickly took me up on the offer. You can visit her site, Mirage, by clicking here. On it, you’ll find such stories as Ships and The Consequence of Feeling.

As for my own sites and stories, there are updates coming soon. I’m doing some reorganizing on Extemporaneous and I plan to upload all of that once I can steal some wifi. I’m also working on another new layout for this site, as I haven’t been nearly as happy with this template as I hoped I would be. But that’s not going to be coming soon for quite some time.

Hope you guys enjoy today’s updates. If nothing else, it ought to give you plenty to read for quite a while.
