Pinned: A small update on what’s happening around here (and on Patreon) ❤️

Quick heads-up, my friends:

I’m recovering from a health situation which will take some time, and therefore things will have to run on a slower rehab rhythm for a while.

Patreon content and blog activity will continue, but pacing and format will likely be different from what you’re used to for the foreseeable future.

I’m still figuring things out, but I wanted to share this so that you have some context for the changes you may notice around here, and on Patreon. 🥲

If you’re curious to know more about my situation, I’ve shared a detailed update on Patreon (here), which is open to both free and paid members.

Much love,

KFG ❤️

Happy 13th! Reflections, Feels, and a Fun Drama Game

Happy 13th birthday to my little bloggie.. You’re officially – gasp! – a teenager now! 😱👀

Today marks 13 whole years since I nervously hit “publish” on my very first post – and honestly, I’m still a little stunned that we’re all here, hanging out, flailing over dramas, and having feelings™ together, all these years later.

Every comment, every DM, every “I watched this because of you” – it all means more than I can say. 🥲

Thank you for being here, whether you’ve been with me from the very beginning when I was a brand new blogger who could barely figure out what she was doing, or you just wandered in recently because a certain drama just grabbed you by the heart. 💛

Thank you everyone for all of your warm wishes on my 12th blogoversary; it’s been very special walking down memory lane with some of you, like when phl1rxd and I reminisced about when she’d first left a comment on the blog.

ANYWAY.

Happy 12th! + Giveaway!

Exactly 12 years ago, on 12.12.12, I started this blog, and now, my little blog that I’d started on a whim, is not so little anymore. 🥲

We’re TWELVE, my friends! 😱

That’s crazy, and amazing, and I’m not actually sure what to say, to mark the occasion, you guys. 😅

Happy 11th!

Ahem. Drum roll, please.. 🥁🥁🥁

Today, the blog turns ELEVEN, everyone! 😱

Wow, right?

It feels like not so long ago, that we celebrated the blog turning ten (here!), and yet, a whole year’s flown past in what feels like the blink of an eye, and now, I get to say that my blog’s 11 whole years old.

Uh. My blog is officially a ‘tween, you guys. 😅

Quick Announcement: Copy & paste no longer allowed on this site

Hi everyone,

This is just a quick announcement to let you all know that I’ve just installed a plugin on the site, to prevent theft of my content.

The trigger for this, is that over the last couple of days, 3 of my posts have been stolen and republished on another website which clearly just steals from other sites, because I saw a Dramabeans recap also posted there.

I am having trouble locating the host of this thieving website, and so, I can’t serve a DMCA notice. I’m not TOO upset about that, because with the plugin that I’ve just installed, they can’t steal any more of my posts, and neither can anyone else.

Unfortunately, this also means that you guys won’t be able to right-click, highlight, copy or paste on the blog, sorry about that. 🙁

PSA: On improving loading speed for the blog

Hi everyone,

This is just a quick announcement, that the blog’s site loading speeds SHOULD have improved.

But, in order for you to enjoy the faster speeds, you may need to clear your browser caches on your device.

I’ll talk a little more about this after the jump – but I just wanted to put it out there upfront, that clearing your browser caches might be the missing link, now that I’ve put fixes in place.

Happy 10th!

YOU GUYS.

The blog is 10 years old today! TENNN! 😱🤯 That’s literally multiple lifetimes, in blogging years?

The reason I say that, is because when I started blogging, common wisdom was that most blogs didn’t last past the one year mark. And so, if a blog lasted more than a year, then it had a chance of actually having a more lasting presence.

It’s blows my mind, that 10 years ago, I started this blog, ON A WHIM(!), just to see what it was like to have a drama blog, and 10 years later, here I am, and here we are. Wow. 🤯

I feel like I ought to say something extra wise and momentous, to mark the occasion, but.. I’m not sure I’ve got anything wise or momentous enough, to say. 😅

But, let’s see what I manage to rustle up, anyway. 😁

Update: The future of group watches and other changes

Hi everyone!

Thanks so much to those of you who took the time to let me know what you would like to see on the blog, going forward.

Aside from the results of the poll itself, I’ve also been paying close attention to the opinions and perspectives you guys shared in the comments.

Taking everything into account, it felt like an appropriate time to overhaul my entire blogging and Patreon approach and schedule, and today, I think it’s time to let y’all know what I have in mind. 😇

Review: NordVPN for my drama needs

Hi everyone!

This is a different sort of post that I have for you guys today, because instead of talking about a drama or a movie, I’ll be talking about a VPN service – that helps me get my drama game on, heh.

Today, I’ll be talking about NordVPN, the service that I personally use to get my grabby hands on as many of the drama offerings out there, as possible.

FULL DISCLOSURE: I paid for my NordVPN subscription with my own money.

HOWEVER! If you use my affiliate link to purchase your own subscription, you’ll get to enjoy up to 60% off * your subscription, AND, this will also give me a modest commission, at no extra cost to you, which helps to allow me to keep on doing what I love, here on the blog. Win-win! 😃

* This used to say 73%, but because NordVPN’s changed the way it calculates the discount, it now says 60%. BUT, it’s the same great price, starting from US$3.29 a month!
