What are my goals with this site?
I just want to have a place that's truly my own, in a way social media cannot provide.
My main goal at heart is to make a site that feels like something
I could have gotten lost in when I was a kid... Back when the internet felt exciting.
I do think adopting some of the principles of that era can contribute to a more
healthy relationship to the internet- as well as a more fun one.
What does "Wygol Village" mean?
Wygol Village is the name of the main hub area/town in my favorite
video game, Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. It's a game that's very special to
me (I even have a massive shrine for it on this site!) and after I made it my Tumblr URL
a few years ago, the moniker stuck and it's been my username on pretty much everything since.
Is all that stuff about being a werewolf or whatever real?
I mean, what are you going to do, not believe me?
