Update: The foreseeable future of team watches and other improvements

Hello everyone!

Many thanks so a great deal to people of you who took the time to allow me know what you would like to see on the website, likely ahead.

Aside from the effects of the poll by itself, I’ve also been paying out near focus to the viewpoints and perspectives you guys shared in the comments.

Using all the things into account, it felt like an appropriate time to overhaul my whole running a blog and Patreon method and routine, and these days, I think it is time to enable y’all know what I have in head. 😇

This is my energized but afraid face. 😅

Crucial Observe:

This is continue to in a demo and screening stage, so I might modify items together the way.

1. THE Foreseeable future OF THE Group Look at

(A) Will we however have group watches?

In accordance to the consequence of the poll, we will go on with group watches below on the web site, but we will reduce that to the moment a week.

The new team look at will materialize on Saturdays, ie, there will no much more team watches on Wednesdays.

At this time, we are ending up our team enjoy of Autumn’s Concerto, so the new group view will choose the spot of Autumn’s Concerto, when we wrap up that team watch.

(B) How will we make a decision on what to view?

For a even though now, we’ve had the People’s Preference check out on Wednesdays (decided by a poll of shortlisted titles) and the Editor’s Preference on Saturdays (picked by me).

Due to the fact we are transferring to a solitary group look at on Saturdays, it feels right to me, that we change the method in which was choose the show, so that both of those you and I get a say in what show we view.

As a substitute of a poll, we’ll have a brainstorm write-up, wherever I will share a shortlist of achievable group view dramas, and you guys can allow me know what you consider in the opinions.

If you have a drama in intellect that is not on the shortlist, sense free of charge to share it in the comments, and inform us why you feel it’d make for a terrific team look at.

In the conclude, I will consider into account all the enter that you guys have supplied, and make an total final decision on what I feel would get the job done very best for all of us, and then I’ll make an announcement on what we’re seeing, and I will also incorporate the group observe program, together with that.

(C) What does the timeline for this look like?

We will finish up our group enjoy of Autumn’s Concerto on Saturday, 3 September 2022.

To give us all a little bit of a breather between team watches (which some people did reveal would be welcome, in the poll), we will start off our brainstorm on Saturday, 10 September 2022, and we will have that brainstorm open for just about a week, until finally 16 September 2022.

I will make an announcement on our chosen display on Saturday, 17 September 2022.

And our first Open Thread for the new group view will go live on Saturday, 24 September 2022.

(D) In summary

Sat, 3 September: Ultimate OT for Autumn’s Concerto

Sat, 10 September: Brainstorm for new team look at

Sat, 17 September: Announcement write-up for new team view

Sat, 24 September: 1st OT for new group view

2. Additional Reviews ON THE Web site

Imma require to concentrate, for this a person..! 🤓

Coming in a shut 2nd in the poll, was the notion of stopping the team watches entirely, so that I could emphasis on crafting a lot more critiques.

I’m satisfied to proceed the group look at in some variety, for the reason that I’ve ended up observing some good reveals that I’m guaranteed I would’ve hardly ever gotten all over to, on my individual (like Stranger, Signal and Read It By means of The Grapevine).

At the exact same time, the strategy of getting a lot more assessments on the web site is totally in line with what I’d like for the weblog as very well.

And so, I’m operating to make that happen.

In order to make that transpire, there are some key variations that want to materialize on both of those Patreon and the blog site.

(A) Improvements on Patreon

I’m revamping my putting up routine on Patreon, to empower me to go over demonstrates more quickly than I have been.

Instead of a 5 working day cycle wherever I submit a person established of episode notes each individual 5 days, I will now write-up 2 sets of episode notes per 7 days, for each demonstrate coated on Patreon.

This will empower me to complete looking at demonstrates quicker, and for that reason publish their testimonials on the principal blog faster, as a outcome.

This is what the current timetable appears like:

MONDAY: A Desire Of Splendor, 4 eps, up from 2 eps

TUESDAY: Shining For Just one Matter, 4 eps, up from 2 eps

WEDNESDAY: Extraordinary Legal professional Woo, 2 eps, up from 1 ep

THURSDAY: Adore Like The Galaxy, 4 eps, up from 2 eps

FRIDAY: Alchemy Of Souls, 2 eps, up from 1 ep

SATURDAY: Autumn’s Concerto group view listed here on the blog site

SUNDAY: k-ent tidbits on Patreon

I’ve been on this new program for a 7 days now, and while it’s continue to doable (ie, I haven’t crashed and burned yet), it does suggest that I want to slender my concentrate in terms of how I use my time.

Which provides me to..

(B) Changes on the blog

Simply because I am investing so considerably a lot more time watching the episodes and producing episode notes, in buy to sooner or later carry much more testimonials to the web site, I come across that I at the moment don’t have the bandwidth to produce other posts for the web site.

Which is why you could possibly have discovered that the blog’s been additional quiet this week (sorry!). 🙈

I fundamentally have my hands complete trying to juggle my new viewing timetable, alongside with writing the improved amount of episode notes, and don’t have time to fit in anything at all else. 🤪

For the time becoming, I don’t foresee that I will be in a position to produce Dear kfangurl posts, or Flash Critiques of flicks or other limited drama issues.

With any luck ,, that will change at the time I get a greater handle on how to manage my new timetable, but until finally then, the blog’s likely to be quieter than regular for a little bit, right up until the much more regular critiques start out coming out (starting up next thirty day period!). 😅

Like I described at the commencing of this publish, this is however in a trial stage, so I may well be making variations along the way, in purchase to make all the things perform greater all round.

You should truly feel absolutely free to enable me know how this is working for you I’m constantly interested to know what you men consider!

Also, many thanks for your endurance, as I recalibrate, not only in this article on the blog, but on Patreon as effectively. (Preventing, me! 👀)

With any luck ,, this will outcome in a place that superior speaks to your drama would like and needs!

~KFG ❤️
