Still some work to do.
Well, I thought it was about time for a little update.
I`m sitting here, a stones throw away from 'Gringots bank' looking out of my window at the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben and the London Eye and hoping my supervisor takes his time coming back with the Quarter pounders. On my drive home, I`ll probably get caught at the traffic lights just beside the Tower of London. The thing is, I tend to take all this for granted. Living here, you just tend not to notice just what a grat place London is. It doesn`t help when you are snowed under at work and most of your spare time is spent on a laptop, answering emails, trying to figure out why that straightforward PHP program still wont work and looking for interesting updates for the best HP fanfiction site on the net.
Errmmm, I suppose I`d better get back to the update. Now that the site is open for submissions again, you can imagine that there are quite a few people who have been writing away during the closure and now have new stories and chapters to edit. The last time I checked, there were approximately fifteen hundred submissions waiting to be validated and hundreds more being added every day. So please be a little patient with us. We all have other things to do apart from the site. The staff are made up of people who give their time to HPFF while trying to juggle real life that involves, families, colleges, exams and in one case the trauma of finding out that a local shop will no longer be stocking Krispy Kremes. We really try our best to keep this place going and it is not a rare occurance to find several staff members spending an entire night in the queue, with only a cup of coffee for comfort.
So please bear with us. The site is going from strength to strength and can only get better. We are still the top site on the net for HP fanfiction. Over 26,000 stories and more than 100 million hits last month alone! We are still getting hundreds of submissions daily and new members are joining every day.
Hold on a minute! Is that a quarter pounder I can smell? Yep, looks like I`d better log off! Bye for now. Untill the next time. Jay. :)
