Today's been one of those days where time blindness pushes me to keep going and squeeze every second of the day to DO SOMETHING.
In the spirit of self-care, I'm writing down everything I did today.
- Added all THIRTY FIVE chapters of Eyes and Lies. This was a real pain in the ass because each file is in a file and Neocities file manager doesn't allow for importing folders. I created them MANUALLY and it was a world of pain. Never again.
- Troubleshooting site. I noticed the links to some fics were broken so I fixed those manually and found I had wasted some time uploading files that weren't used. Great (sarcasm).
- A previous post made me want to try Obsidian again for writing on mobile so I started down that and my oh my I learned that Joplin's export is a glorified vendor lock-in. Can't download my files in Markdown from the app I just begun using! Rerouting to my desktop to get a decent was going to be a real pain so I decided to move the twelve files I had manually. Here's a screenshot of how it looks so far:
I'm using Obsidian Bases! By now YAML syntax is pretty intuitive (been using it with 11ty). This is the first time I'm using 'title' as metadata. It displays it much cleaner than in the file itself. Also, there's no option to display the contents of the note sink added a 'summary' section.
Something I was also missing was a word count thingy. Didn't find that in the other two I used but I could just have overlooked them.
- Archived some posts from Pillowfort and crosspoted to Dreamwidth. I am very protective of my words so posts I find important I want to keep a Markdown/plain text version before sharing them online. So I went backwards and archives some posts I wrote on Pillowfort to Markdown and then crossposted to Dreamwidth and shared them to comms. Pretty time-consuming stuff!
- Before I forget, I shared my fic archive with the template creator and they linked it in the template, yipee (o▽o)!
Welp, that's been everything for today. Hope everyone has a good Monday and rest of the weekend.
