The site showcases a thoughtful writer with a penchant for femslash, polyamory, and emotionally rich 'fix-it' narratives set in the Star Wars universe.
https://benji.dog/
Benji's personal site serves as a living log of books read, movies watched, music listened to, and occasional written articles, all organized with an indie-web sensibility and RSS feeds. The mix of Letterboxd-style film ratings, reading logs, and personal notes makes it a charming window into one person's cultural consumption and creative life.

https://jangobrecht.com/
Jan's personal internet playground, hosted in Edinburgh, Scotland, where he shares blog posts, photos, and reflections on life, cycling, and personal growth. The site blends a warm, welcoming tone with a distinctly old-web spirit, complete with a guestbook, GPG key, and a hit counter starting from the Unix epoch.
https://besix.neocities.org/
A hauntingly minimalist personal site called 'unholy ghost' with a Dante-inspired greeting that sets a dark, gothic tone. Almost entirely bare of content, it offers little more than an evocative title and atmospheric mood.
