Remodeling Tarantellia

a Breakdown of Goals for Tarantellia in 2024

Tarantellia has been my passion project for at least 5 years now. It deserves a lil revamp. It's been my goal for a few years now to give it the attention it deserves. There's a lot to do but I'm glad you're here with me on this journey! Thanks for stopping by!
I'm currently breaking up this task into 3 Major Categories.

• Revision: edit and elaborate on current articles
• Expansion: focus on new projects, stubs, and reader features
• Maximizing My Subscription: utilize the features WA has to offer

This breakdown will be thorough and complete. For all my goal setting, number loving phoenixes, this article is for you.
