Developments

So I've gone underground the past couple of days and haven't kept up with posting, but I swear it's been because I've actually been {gasp!} productive. When I haven't been banging my head about transcribing interviews, I've been making new revisions to my manuscript, AND....designing my own website. I'm very excited about this. The design is a something like Jane Austen with a hint of Kurt Cobain. Actually I had planned a little bit more Kurt Cobain, but achieving that level of grunge was just too much effort.

...and I realize you probably have no idea what I'm talking about here. I want to show you, give you a sneak peek, but I won't. It'll just have to be a surprise. I've laid out the blog/home page, which is the main bulk of the design. Now I just have to put together some of the other pages, which should go very quickly now that I've gotten the main design fleshed out. Then Tech Support (aka: my husband) will help me work it into wordpress. And then Tasting Grace will have a new home! It will be at jadekeller[dot]com. But don't go there now. Now there is just a half-assed pre-made wordpress layout. Very boring.

And hopefully, design trends won't quite change in the next 5 minutes making me look out-dated just as I got in. I'm hoping to be a published, pregnant woman who can work from home before I have to do another design overhaul (which, as those of you who are familiar with the Jadian timeframe know should be a few years off), because it's a lot of work! On top of other career work to do...

Anyway, that's where I am. If I disappear for a while, it's because I'm tidying up my manuscript. In the meantime, here's a little tidbit for all the Buffy fans out there. Nuala, I think you especially will enjoy this.
