Like Butter Over Too Much Bread
Nov. 2nd, 2007 10:12 amI overextended myself in October. I admit this. The result was worth it -- Classic-Horror busted through all previous traffic records and we posted more content than in any previous month, with 32 reviews, 34 news stories, 7 features, and 2 interviews. Of those, I wrote eight of the reviews, all the news stories, six of the features, and I conducted one of the interviews via email and transcribed the audio of the other (all told, a total of nearly 22,000 words). On top of that, I edited roughly half of the other reviews. It's an accomplishment of which I'm proud -- as should everyone involved, but damn, I'm completely burned out now.
I'm thinking of taking a step back from the site in November, but I'm not sure how. I suppose that the method will present itself, since![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
midnightfae and I are moving at the end of the month and there is still tons of packing to do.
At the same time, I'm a little drunk on the amazing traffic we pulled in October and keen to maintain a regular review schedule to try and keep some of that traffic. My goal has always been two reviews a week, although we almost never meet that. I think, however, if we bring on one or two more writers, we should be good to go.
Oh, andtimjr? Sorry we haven't gotten you back your revisions yet. We're kind of taking it easy right now. Soon, though!
In case anyone was curious, The Roomie and I had our annual Halloween movie marathon. We kicked off on the night of the 30th and I took the 31st off so we could pack in as many films as possible. The list of films is below the cut (films I'd never seen before in bold).
The roomie has Sunday off, so we're heading to Chandler Cinemas for a triple-feature of Return of the Living Dead (1985), Krull (1983), and Meet the Feebles (1989).
