so joey and i nailed down october 15th (my 30th birthday) as the launch date for whimville.com, a stand alone site, much in the spirit of james kochalka's AMERICANELF. MT powered, too.
i've also decided to rerun the original 15 episodes of the original WHIMVILLE and continue the story from there. i've already begun working on the new episodes. after a couple of false starts and board posts of "new" material, my frustration was mounting till i went back and looked at the old episodes that originally ran on themestream.com. when i had to quit WHIMVILLE originally i promised a lot of you it would be back. there's been a lot of near opportunities to work on it but now, with WHIMVILLE.com, i'll be able to continue the story the way i wanted to. i've gone back and made a lot of editorial changes (mostly spelling corrections), so the "old" episodes will be "remixed" to only a minute degree... then, when the 15th episode runs, the new stuff will begin.
i can't wait for you to see the site! this is exactly the model i'd hoped for with the original WHIMVILLE, a site that is supported by the readers. of course, this will be a subscription site, but i promise i'll make it something you'd WANT to subscibe to !!!
if i can just get 1000 subscribers, i can probably work full time for the first time ever!!! whoot!
