So I bought a website http://justafangirl.org/


And I'm second guessing myself. I mean really, will anyone other than me actually read my reviews? And Wordpress is driving me crazy. I just want the "blog posts" part, screw everything else. On one hand, I fucking love that layout. Seriously I can barely stop looking at it. And I LOVE THE NAME "JUSTAFANGIRL".

On the other, I can't help but just feel like I should give it up since I don't see this working out well and it's just another form of wasting money. I have just under two weeks to decide.


So I'm asking anyone and everyone who would be interested in viewing this website?

I can't say whether I'd check it since it would obviously depend on what shows, episodes you put up and whether i want to read about it. Sorry that was super unhelpful.

On another note, I loved the layout! Did you do that???

At least you replied! That's helpful enough.... Although what shows are you looking for? If I know them I'll write about them, or even if I didn't I'd try and see if I can find them and watch them. I'm (was?) going to do new and old shows and experiment.

I did do the graphics part - Oliver/Felicity manip but the background texture to it plus the CSS code is from punk-rose.com which is an amazing website I love. Seriously I can barely stop looking at it I'm so proud of it.

Well, I watch a lot of different shows. I've recently been binge watching Castle - I can't believe I haven't watched this show until now. What do you mean by new shows and old? By old, you mean ones not on tv anymore or do you simply mean ones that have been on tv a while but are still coming out with new episodes?

I've recently caught up on Castle as well, so I'll totally do those. And yeah I meant old as in shows not in production anymore and old shows still producing new episodes.

Hmm, do you plan on doing this simply as a hobby? In which case it would probably be simplest to review whatever you're already watching, including old shows or binge watching. However, if you want this to be more like a legit television review site, then perhaps you should find out which shows are the most popular and review those. Is it television or are you planning on doing movies too? Or even books? "Reviews" encompass quite a bit. I'm not sure how diverse you're planning on going.

I'm gonna try and do something like a legit review site, but it's going to be more of what I like so kinda like a hobby too. I watch a lot of old stuff but also a lot of the newer current shows.

I've already did 1 film review, and I'm planning on doing others. I'm also going to try and do books, because I love books and I never really have anywhere to write about how I feel about them... but its been a little while before I've finished a book, so the Books section might be smaller and less updated.

I would check it out if you linked to it, but I don't like the black background. Too dark for me.

Excellent! I could skin the site - I do love making layouts so the next one can be lighter.

Whilst I'm not digging the layout (Lauliver shipper, sorry!) I enjoy reading reviews so if you're reviewing shows that I watch then I would definitely read! :)

Awe! But yay if you read them! What shows would be looking for?
[identity profile] paireinlove.livejournal.com on October 29th, 2013 03:20 pm (UTC)
I watch a lot! :P
But the ones I saw on your website that I watch are Arrow, Reign and Witches of East End.
ext_34969: Alex/Justin[identity profile] flareonfury.livejournal.com on October 30th, 2013 03:20 am (UTC)
I watch a lot too. I'm kinda dreading making the favorite "lists" on the website because that will have SOOO many on them, lol.

And yay for Arrow, Reign, and Witches of East End! (and yay for the Sailor Moon icon!)
[identity profile] paireinlove.livejournal.com on October 30th, 2013 05:04 pm (UTC)
Aha, I know what you mean! I start to feel a bit awkward after I've named twenty off tv shows and I still have more to come...
Sailor Moon is my childhood! :P

I know and than I see people that can actually list like 5 and that's it, and I'm like -- Really? Trying to list my top 10 is hard. I really do think I have like over 100 fandoms... it sure feels like it sometimes.

She was mine as well... although the DC Animated Universe was mainly mine along with Buffy (I was like seven and watching Buffy....) .

If it's Arrow you're reviewing, I'll check in from time to time.

Yup! My layout kinda clues that in. Thanks for your input! ;D
