Last week I began to put together the new website. And yesterday, the last day of October, I pressed launch.
I know minor adjustments need to be made, so that's on this week's to do list.
The most difficult part was the About page. What was I comfortable with sharing? Which insights into my writing and my values would a reader want to discover?
I'm not sure whether I achieved that, but if not, it can be rewritten.
For now, I've gone with a simple design on WordPress, easy to navigate and read. Plus, it's good viewed on a tablet or phone.
The design of the theme has helped with my current eyesight difficulties. I had changes to my vision over the summer and needed new glasses. They're ordered, so I'm hoping the latest lockdown, announced yesterday, won't interfere in the production of the lenses, or lengthens the time it takes before I can collect them.
Once I've got my new glasses I'll be able to update my profile pictures.
Meanwhile, it's back to the novel after my thinking time...
If you haven't seen my new website, do please pop over and take a look. I love the logo created from this initial letter image.

Very nice, Carol. Clear and easy to read, and I really like your fancy B.
Julia- thank you. When I saw the image I hoped it would work as a logo for the new website, and fortunately it did.
The creator of it on Pixabay has some fabulous images.
Well done for getting it up and running, Carol.
Patsy- thank you. I'm pleased with how it looks.
You've certainly been busy over on your website. It's looking good and as you say, everything is very clear and easy to find.
I hope you've received your new glasses and I look forward to seeing your new profile picture on your new blog.
Maria- thank you. My eye issues have made me aware of how important font choice and ease of navigation is.
My new glasses are good, though I need slight adjustment on the frame. As for the new profile picture, I need to go to the hairdressers again! :D
