AUTHORSITEMAIN
In this connected world of ours, writers need a home base on the web. There are many possibilities for that home base. For some, that is a Facebook author page. Others use the Amazon Author page. Some have a blog. However, many find that the most flexible type of web presence is their own website. A website provides you with an opportunity to showcase your work in your way, connect with fans, expose your work to potential readers, create a resource where you can display your writing skills to potential private clients.

Building a web site can seem like a daunting task, but with today's web authoring tools, you can build a quality website without having to write a single line of code. This course teaches you how to create a professional writer's website using simple tools and techniques, most free or low cost.

I enjoyed the class very much and it helped me to feel more motivated, and encouraged, to work on my website. I especially appreciate all the handouts and lesson plans that were provided by the instructor.
