Bholenath Valsan's Personal Website

Welcome to my personal website, my hovel of zaniness. I am Bholenath Valsan, a horror communicator.

You may have seen me elsewhere on the net, especially in the horror-oriented corners of it. If you did, you may have noticed that I generally don't talk about myself, unless it is directly related to something in the article I wrote. And in those cases, most of the time the personal info I reveal about myself is negligible.

After almost four years of writing about horror on the interwebs I thought it would make sense to create such a site, with a detailed personal profile.

Purpose of this Personal Website

This personal website fulfills three purposes, first, as an in-depth personal profile in which all my personal information that I want to share with others is posted.

Second, a place where I can curate all the cool places on the indie web that I find, to share them with you.

Third, as a place where I publish a personal blog that is not related to any of my endeavors in particular, but where I can post on-topic (horror) and off-topic things in general. Especially after having experienced carrying a personal blog on Tumblr and finding out that is not good for that purpose.

How to Use This Website

You will notice that the big graphic above has clickable sections. Each of the openings takes you to a different area of the site. You'll also notice that in the inner pages the navigation graphic is different. Still, it works the same way, you can click any of the sections to go to each of the different inner pages.

Since this is a static, hard-coded personal website I decided to keep it as simple as I could. It has two levels, level one, is this page where you can read my blog. Level two is formed by each of the pages in the main navigation.

When I started designing and developing this website I did put a deadline on myself, to have all its kinks ironed out by Easter 2022, and I'm proud to tell you that I achieve that milestone.

But to get all technical aspects done before the deadline I had to write the base content for each page in a hurry, and as a result of that, the content suffered.

As of today, the day after Easter day, this is the word count of each of this personal website's content pages:

Manifesto: 1419 words
Work: 926 words
Personal info 1643 words
Art: 894 words words
Social Profiles: 843 words
Leisure: 1038 words
Picks and Links: 1058 words

I plan to expand the content on each of the content pages. I think I will not stop developing the content pages until each one has from 3000 to 6000 words.
