My wife took off Friday the 11th (my birthday; I'm 35 now) and Monday the 14th (Valentine's) to give us a 4-day weekend together, and as her gift to me, she offered to help me work on the site, so that's what we did.
We got quite a bit done and most of what's left has to do with the BetaWolf sections I'm creating for each story (they won't be publicly available; only members of BetaWolf will be able to access them). Part of me wants to say "fuck it" and go ahead and open the site already, but putting my stories through the process of being beta-read is how I eventually get to the point where I feel confident enough to post new material for everyone to read. So, even though it's not necessary to have those areas completed in order to let people access the rest of the site, without those areas up and working, it's going to be that much longer before I have anything new to post, so I've ultimately decided to wait.
But I wanted to let everyone know that's what I'm working on. Of course, it would go a lot faster if my notes were at all organized, but they're not, so I also have to go through everything and try to make it intelligible. It's something I've needed to do anyway, so I'm glad to be sorting through it all. The problem is that looking at my notes inspires me to want to actually work on those parts of the story, but that won't get the organizing work done, so it ends up being a little tedious.
Well, back to the grindstone. :)
