PVT has reached 50 000 page views this month. A significant number, and one I at one point thought I would never reach. I still recall struggling to break 1000 views per month some three years ago when I was just starting out. Since then the traffic count has grown steadily and has more than [...]

HOPE has now recieved its own domain name, AntiPeak.com. The site is currently empty, but I will start publishing chapters to it soon.
