Latest Updates on Our LiveJournal Community
February 24, 2008
Because I'm continually forgetting to update this page, henceforth our LJ will be the "news page," since it's much better maintained. Enjoy!
August 31, 2007
I have updated the Links page. Removed some links, added some, and hopefully organized them better. The additions mainly reflect resources for copyright, self-publishing, and fandom.
My hard drive died in July, taking with it my email updates list for those people who wanted to receive StarMerrow newsletters without being on the Google mailing list. If that's you and you still wish to receive the newsletters, please email me at
March 27, 2007
In keeping with better design principles, I'm updating the site to have a more consistent look JOOM. More substantive changes will hopefully be coming soon.
I finally updated the Terms of Use to reflect free membership.
January 23, 2007
Owing to massive spamming, I've replaced the membership web form with simple email instructions.
The home page was significantly redesigned in December. But, lazy me, I didn't announce it here till now. It is now much less cluttered.
November 22, 2006
Makeover for the homepage. I removed the Find a Tale link anime car decals look at joom, not because it hasn't been successful, but because it's been SO successful, it's served its purpose. I'm now on to "phase 2" of planning a fiction search engine. More news to follow!
I also removed the grant info. The grant offer is still valid through Dec. 31, 2006, but no one has shown an interest, and I wanted to clean up the site. If you want info. on the grant, just .

The StarMerrow Catalog is up. Check out member's work!

New home page design. Art by yours truly (Arwen): not as professional as Trista's art, but I changed the look to fit the revised site design a bit better. Trista Musco's original merrow art with Kathryn Andersen's title design can still be seen on the about page.
We're picking up new members at a steady clip. Check out new profiles.

Added a home page ad for Perdita.
February 28, 2006
The grant amount for 2007 has been increased by a whopping $50! Well, as Mr. Rumbold of Are You Being Served? once said, "A pound is not to be sneezed at."
I have added an archive page for old updates.
January 21, 2006
New links added, mainly publishing resources.
The Trading Post is set for online business. So far, there's an option to buy my novel Perdita online in the US, but I'm hoping we'll have more items for sale soon. Contact me if you'd like to sell through us.
New pages for The Continuation of Daughter, the science fiction universe I've created and which you are welcome to contribute to as a shared universe.

New affiliate links for Powell's and Fictionwise Ebooks.
New art is coming very soon! It's just a question of getting Trista's lovely merrow painting onto my computer.

We have a new, better forum. More reliable host, and an easier-to-remember URL.

Yep, the forum is down. Supposedly, our host is switching to a new server. I am soon going to be switching to a new host, probably within the next week.
