So it's Christmas morning at Wibbly House. Randi's already off to see family for the day, much to her regret. Stormy and I are getting the really messy house ready for her family to visit for lunch. My family's coming over on Saturday.
We're roughly speaking an agnostic bunch here, so the religious aspect of the holiday is lost on us. We're only a little materialistic, so presents are just tokens of affection, not goals or obligations (well, they are a bit obligationy for Stormy, but she's the most materialistic of us >_> ). For myself, and I think largely for the others, the season is about cherishing friends and family.
Wibbly Press is a family unto itself and we like to think of our audience as friends. We all hope you have a happy and stress free Christmas and continue to stay with us into the new year.
Yes...I know it's been more than a week since the last one (depending on how you measure a week of course...I wonder how long a Jovian week is?).
So. News.
Mirrorheart has come to an end, and the author is taking a break.
The store is now working, shipping and all (some images are having issues in Chrome, we're working on that). New badge designs will be going in soon.
Plans for next year...well, for starters we will be attending all east coast Supanovas (Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney in order). Doujicon unfortunately doesn't seem to be going ahead, so we won't be there.
So I figure it's time we started having one of these, and this is a week with news, so it's a good time to start. :)
In regards to the site, we're still tweaking - if you have any problems, please contact us or leave a comment.
The .mobi site is doing quite well (just a reminder, that's the version of WP that you can access on your mobile phones, at wibblypress.mobi). We're fun, we're portable, and you can use us to scare your friends (I mean, if they're reading over your shoulder and they think it's an sms... :P ).
Well...you may or may not have noticed, but this is the new site. :)
This beautiful, cohesive piece of genius is thanks to a group of uni students that I kept locked in the basement of Wibbly House, er...kindly offered to do this as their semester project.
Everything should be pretty self-explanatory - links are above and to the left, all the most recent posts from across the Wibblyverse are displayed right here on the front page.
Episode archives are forthcoming, but for the moment, you can easily browse by clicking on the serial name.
Our store is now open! Click the link up top and go check it out.
The number of badges in the store will increase, and other items, like posters and bookmarks, will follow (as well as the books early next year).
I apologise for slacking, I really do - no interviews for almost two weeks, and only sporadtic Mirrorheart updates. (The Mirrorfall edit, however, is doing very well - I'm 2/3 through that).
There is also a very good reason I've been unable to concentrate on the writing half of Wibbly for a couple of weeks - the business side of Wibbly.
