Hi, I'm Olive! I'm a college student studying literature with a side of French. I'm still unsure of what information to put here, but one random fun fact about me is that I play roller derby.
Like many others here, the modern internet and social media was pissing me off, so I decided to put my HTML/CSS skills to use and build my own site! It doesn't have any particular theme—it's just me doing whatever I want, which, in practice, has meant mostly blogging and book related things. In the future, I intend to expand beyond those and include content about my other interests.
I try to keep the site updated on a fairly regular basis, but can't guarantee anything, since, well, I have college to deal with.
7/17/2024 Updated some of the code; moved my button to be more visible; added a cross-stitch page and promptly removed cross-stitch page due to difficulties.
7/13/2024 Added a new blog post; updated Pseudepigraph's (formerly Pleurodelinae) button; updated TBR page.
6/23/2024 Added two new sections to the homepage; updated the reading log and TBR.
6/8/2024 Somehow, I managed to not upload the updated reading log. Anyways, it's live now!
6/6/2024 New and improved home page is
now live!
The updated reading log,
blog, and TBR pages will be coming later this
week also today, apparently.
None of the fields are mandatory. Alternatively, you can send me an email or leave a message on the site profile.
Convert "reading log" to use the details tag; convert
blog to not use the details tag; elaborate on the
me/site about; start a book recommendation page; start a
cool links page; add a little section for things removed
from the TBR.
Roller derby shrine: A decent chunk of the work is done for this, but I need to finish the map I'm making and some writing.
Voltron not-exactly-shrine: It has been planned. Will be put on the site after I get the introduction and "things I liked" sections done, since it's going to be a looooong time otherwise.
This site was coded almost entirely from scratch, with one exception: the guestbook code comes from this sadgrl.online tutorial. It uses the fonts EB Garamond and Silkscreen, and the background is the Bird and Anemone wallpaper, designed by William Morris.
