Oh Holy Cats.

So if I'm going to keep writing books, or market the first novel properly, I need a website.

This should not be difficult. As impqueen, I spent years blogging on crime sites using Wordpress, or whatever the site owner was using. At The Demon, I just showed up and wrote stuff - Morbid did all the back end work.  (Don't snicker, it's unladylike. Or ungentlemanly, or something. You know you laughed.) But this "build your own site" stuff blows.

I've been eyeballing hosting and site building templates, because I'm kind of a wysiwyg girl since my car accident last July. The brain, it does not like to store information for easy retrieval sometimes. I really liked Wix, but as it happens, Wix is Flash-based and thus unusable on iPads and iPhones and iThings. Harrumph. Flounce, even.

What's frustrating about all this website-non-development is that it takes time away from my writing. I'd pay someone to build me a site with a nicely integrated blog, but sadly, your favorite author has no marketing budget. Or even a bath bomb budget. Or pretty much any budget at all, really. So that's out.

Deep breaths. Sigh. Headdesk. I think this calls for a picture of Max.



Oh look, it's Max!
