Before and after sign spinning work today, I worked some more on my new website. Feedback is welcome on its design and content. I'm using the free basic Weebly features. There are many design templates to choose from, and I can customize the one I tentatively chose.

Brian Leekley, Writer & Wonderer

... what about a feature to make your website more interactive, A spot for people to leave their thoughts or opinions?
Brian Leekley ..., thanks much for the suggestion. I'll add that this weekend or soon. It's a website, not a blog, so commenting isn't built into the design, but I can have a form on the Contact page for feedback about the site and its content. My blogs are linked to the website, and each of those allows and encourages comments. I want the website to include a page or a blog that is password protected, where those who have already read my first novel can discuss it without giving away what happens and lessening the suspense for first time readers, but to get that I'd need to pay for the "pro" version offered by Weebly.
... It makes sense to have your blogs be places for comments and not the webpage. Other than that I have no suggestions. (Yet, I'll let you know if anything comes to mind)
... Looks cool so far!
... Someone advised me to create a Facebook page for my novel, but I don't understand how or why. Has anyone suggested that to you, Brian?
Brian Leekley ..., no, not personally, but I have seen that suggestion made in articles. When I can get to it, I'll scan and email you a magazine article on that very topic. The why is that a Facebook page is a free way to promote your novel and to build up a fan base measured by the number of "likes". I'm thinking of creating a Facebook page this month or next, and I'll share with you what I find out about how to do it.
