12 November 2007:
Nixed the idea of making all book links in to Amazon links. I made an online bookstore to make up for it. I haven't gotten around to deleting all the links that I already put up, but that will be soon. Other than that I have been progressing on the transfer of the author pages, and I'm reopening submissions. I figure that while I'm transfering it wouldn't hurt me to input new submissions. Also looking at putting up a self-published spotlight to get recognition out to those that may never recieve it.

9 November 2007:
All is progressing smoothly. I'm placing Amazon links with the author book lists allowing everyone to find then buy the book they want. This is something I wanted to implement, and figured I would since I had to do all the author pages any way. This may take a while, but as I said it will be better in the long run. Also planning on putting an Amazon book store directly in the site for easier access.

7 November 2007:
There is stil alot of work to be done, but it is coming together. Untill I get all the bugs out of the site i will not be updating the database. This will put me behind, but will be for the best in the long run. So please be patient this could take a while since I'm the only one coding the site.

NEED TO DO:
  • Give proper titles to author pages. (Most currently have Any Name, causing difficulties with the site search)
  • Add proper discriptions to author pages.
  • Convert all author pages to new layout.
  • Implement site search on all non-author pages
  • Give proper titles to non-author pages.

30 October 2007:
The site is up and fully functional for the reason it was made, the only things left are design.

UPDATES:
  • All broken links have been fixed. If there are any more please email me with the location and name of the author.
  • The Links and Submit pages are up and functional.
