EDIT [3/14/2010]: NOVALISTIC 4.0 “Sarathos” is officially launching on March 15, 2010.

The new NOVALISTIC, which I said would launch last month, has now been pushed ahead to January 2010. You can see the change in launch date being reflected in the front page.

What’s on in January 2010?

I previously wanted to launch NOVALISTIC 3.0 on my 16th birthday in 2008. For reasons which I can’t disclose unlike in this post, that never happened. I thought it’d be great to launch version 4.0, and start a freelance career, on the month of my 18th birthday this time.

Why is this happening?

I’ve been presented with a seriously tight schedule of schoolwork, and I have tests the week following when I write this. I’m unfortunately unable to cope with all that load.

Too many other things, some good but mostly bad (i.e. robbed me of at least 2 weeks of development time) have also happened in the month of November, and I need time to recover.

I’m not working on NOVALISTIC full-time. While it is one of my primary projects (after all, it’s my online identity), there are several things we need to bear in mind:

  • I’m in polytechnic, which means school projects are aplenty, and I’ll need to devote a good amount of time to schoolwork.
  • Although I’m really passionate in web design & development (why else would I want to freelance in this field?), doing paid work is a very new experience for me.

None of that will make a difference to the quality of the work I’ll deliver, however! No matter the constraint, the work I produce will be work that I put in as much effort as I can into, and I’m sure it’ll be a delight working with you, if you’re reading this post as a prospective client.

That’s about it. Thanks for your understanding on this situation, and I’m sure working with NOVALISTIC in the near future will be a great experience for you as a client, and me as a developer!
