Domains Under Construction 7/6/2010 7:57:49 PM
Nickolaus Pacione talks about moving into his domains WritingsFromTheGrave.com and LakeFossilPress.org. Providing information where his collections can be bought and looking to get his P.O. Box in his adoptive hometown of Joliet, Illinois.
I am in the daunting task of creating all the graphics for each website from scratch and looking to contruct the skeletons all by HTML -- I am not going to jump on the wordpress bandwagon for a website layout because it's a copout for a website. I would like to learn how to do frames (yes I never did them in the 13 years I have Writings From The Grave in operation, and I am looking to provide information on the two books I wrote under the Lake Fossil Press moniker. Those of you who wonder about the imprint -- it will be going under it's six year anniversary.) I just got done doing a blog on my MySpace.com (this is official but it's also more private for me. My long time friends can interact with me on there via messages and stuff like that -- I can also handle submissions via MySpace.com if you know how to do the attachment thing on there. I also got a new message board on another site, I lost the password to the board and the password to the e-mail address I use to maintain the board.) Writings From The Grave dot com and Lake Fossil Press Dot Org will be hosted on where I have Writings From the Grave at along with the office websites for Lake Fossil Press and The Ethereal Gazette -- on there I have the lulu.com url's where people can buy these titles. I use the websites to make it more organized in terms of the titles. I am doing all the graphics for both on FxFoto.com -- I want to do something cool with it. I also make use of Facebook too and I have the same problem I have with Myspace, it's hard to keep in touch with everyone on whose have me added. On Myspace I have over 2179 friends right now and Facebook I got just over 400. I have my facebook profile linked to my story bylines on Writings From The Grave so that means if you've read the story and liked it you can contact me that way. I will be getting my post office box arranged in a few days so I can handle snail mail submissions on a CD-R (don't send me the stories on dead trees because they're a bitch to transcribe, but I do the publications on a dead tree format.) I just got done cleaning out my inbox at rocketmail.com (yahoo bought them out but a lot of us retained our rocketmail addresses when they did this. I've been with rocketmail and hotmail for 13 years -- I opened up Writings From The Grave when it was on tripod back in 1997. I want to thank the guys on Tripod for keeping me all these years. I made the expanded version of Darkness From The Skies as a link from the original one as it is posted here and published in Collectives In A Forsaken Landscape. I finally got the loser's blog shut down who posted every link to every story in Tabloid Purposes, Collectives In A Forsaken Landscape, and Tabloid Purposes II -- the second anthology is now out of print, but I plan to re-edit the anthology with the line up change.) I am also changing the deadline once again for The Ethereal Gazette: Issue 11 to until filled because everyone who is contributing to the magazine are all writing their stories still. I am doing this to accomedate them. I have a few returning authors from previous issues -- and a few of them were on Issue 7 (the first local author edition.) I am looking to do more with local authors on Lake Fossil Press, and when I get the domain finally launched it will be seamless. I got the blessing from Scott Waters to use the background on No Life Til Metal for the background on Lake Fossil Press.org -- some joker took .net and .info (I almost got .net but Brinkster didn't create my account in time. So I going for a domain for my other imprints too -- seeing what I can do to expand my empire once again.) When I did the re-emergence of Writings From The Grave, Tales of the Talisman created a special banner for my website in mind -- a black and read version of their logo landmarking the three year anniversary of when The Typewriter appeared in the pages of their magazine. I have a picture of me holding the issue at Nocturna 2007 -- this would be the last time I would ever go to Nocturna and then become more involved with Chicago's heavy metal scene as a part time promoter. I am working on promoting Carol Sullivan's short horror film Monster In My Closet with my first film credit to my name as the soundtrack corinator. I will be credited as Nickolaus "Wrathchild" Pacione on this and my friend John Welborn did the score for the film. FACECAGE of Big Mouth Records will be doing the closing credits of this film. If you're looking for a dark story from me that's in the longer range check out my deviantart.com profile -- you will find what you're looking for on there but you must sign in to read the story. I also revised the short story I wrote from when I was 23 called Death Row, and this can be read right on the website -- it won't be posted here because of the explicit language. You can get that story in the reading room, and please take the time to sign the guestbook -- but if you leave an e-mail address, don't leave a fake one. I get these jokers commenting on my blog with a fake name and e-mail address too -- it gets annoying. I will not have a wordpress blog for the domains so don't ask. I keep my wordpress blog separate from Writings From The Grave, but my blogspot blog interacts with Writings From The Grave and Lake Fossil Press. I am looking to get this registered in Illinois -- I've been an independent online entity that publishes print on demand dead tree format.
