And I do like v6's category links on the left, so maybe that would be handy in your concept
Asides from that, I think it's looking good . I like the darker search box and the lighter text on quite a few things (great for people with eyesight issues such as myself).

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.

We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
